It's only implemented on Sparc32 and even there Linux does not have a
driver for the power fail interrupt. The idea was that power supply,
power button press or UPS would notify the OS that power will fail and
the system should be shut down.
On Sparc32 actually the power fail interrupt doesn't exactly indicate
what I thought it does, there are two power supplies and the other one
may fail but system can still be running for a long time.
