It does not.   this code is getting called, but still turns the box into
a doorstop at /sbin/reboot. 

It does clear up if I apply this patch, which is a revert of part of
your earlier patch.

My js2X also turns into a doorstop after /sbin/reboot..     Though I'm
not going through a panic path, I wonder if the panic portion is OK and
this is what Olaf is hitting.
