As far as I can see this function is called three times in this file.

First time is in mcu_power_off(), which must return void.
Second time is inside a forever loop in shutdown_thread_fn(), and I 
can't see what could be done with the returned value.

Last time is in the function you are changing. Wouldn't it make sense to 
take the value into account here ? IIUC it is the purpose of the change, 
isn't it ?
