Hi, Michael!

You're right: This kernel doesn't power down the system. But it stops 
very early

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(green on light gray)
....
RADEON_FP...
...
RADEON_TMDS_....
...
RADEON_FP...
...
..
Screen gets darker, but you still can see text scolling
...
the screnn ist cleared
no output can be seen anymore
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I've to switch off the system (power button)

Next thing I'm going to do, is to build a new kernel with this your new 
adb.c
I'll be back soon.

Best regards. / Hilmar.
