Re: how to turn off devices that monitor sensors

[Henry <nbsd4ever%gmail.com@localhost>]

In my post to the port-amd64 list with subject "/sbin/poweroff not
working (NetBSD-current)", I reported that `/sbin/shutdown -p` fails
to poweroff the machine.  The machine freezes with the last messages
to the console:
acpi0: entering state S5
acpitz0: workqueue busy: updates stopped
coretemp0: workqueue busy: updates stopped
coretemp1: workqueue busy: updates stopped

I was thinking maybe if I turned those devices off before executing
poweroff, maybe it would complete and the machine would turn off.

Wishful thinking?
