I would hope we would avoid a situation where both this driver is
probed, and the pinctrl-msm driver has registered a restart handler?

That is, we wouldn't ever mix the pinctrl-msm ps_hold mechanism (for
MSM8660/MSM8960/APQ8064, etc) and msm-poweroff (APQ8074 and later).  Is
this a case you're worried about?
