Currently poweroff/halt results in a reboot on the Raspberry Pi.
The firmware uses the RSTS register to know which partiton to
boot from. The partiton value is spread into bits
0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10. Partiton 63 is a special partition used by
the firmware to indicate halt.

The firmware made this change in 19 Aug 2013 and was matched
by the downstream commit:
Changes for new NOOBS multi partition booting from gsh

v2: Fix typo in commit message

v3: Only Raspberry Pi is supported so it's ok to just modify
    the poweroff function (Stephen Warrren)

I wonder if, sometime down the road, it's worth querying the firmware
version via the firmware driver and dynamically doing the right thing.
Still, the combination of a bleeding edge kernel and an ancient firmware
seems a bit unlikely, so perhaps not worth the bother.
