[PATCH] ppc64: Export machine_power_off for therm_pm72 module

This patch puts back the export of machine_power_off() that was removed by some janitor as it's used for emergency shutdown by the G5 thermal control driver. Wether that driver should use kernel_power_off() instead is debatable and a post-2.6.13 decision. In the meantime, please commit that patch that fixes the driver for now.
