The kernel expects the power_off function to not return, and if it does
it panics. At a slight delay after the i2c write which turns off power
through the pmic, to give capacitors etc. some time to drain.
Without this the kernel lives on long enough after the poweroff to
print the following on the serial console on my Mele A1000G quad:
[ 248.583588] reboot: Power down
[ 248.600490] Kernel pa
With the delay the start of printing "Kernel panic" is gone.
