    Hi!

    Init should get to know that user pressed power button (so it can do
    shutdown and poweroff). Plus, it is nice to let user know that we can
    read such event. [I hunted bug for few hours, thinking that kernel
    does not get the event at all].

    Here's patch to do that. Please apply,
