Right, that wasn't intended to be an upstream patch submittal, just a
description of the problem.

My best guess at a "good" solution would be something like this:

SUBSYSTEM=="input", KERNEL=="event*", SUBSYSTEMS=="platform",
ATTRS{keys}=="116", TAG+="power-switch"

Which would obviously require some new support in gpio-keyboard-polled
to expose the ATTRS{keys}. But I don't know if it is safe to assume that
KEY_POWER is always a graceful powerdown request.

Title:
  gpio shutdown trigger for ProLiant m400 cartridges

Bug description:
  Similar to the m800 case in LP: #1347776, udev/systemd also needs to
  know how to trigger a graceful shutdown on ProLiant m400 cartridges.

  [Impact]
  Without this change, the power down button will not initiate an OS shutdown on this platform.
  [Test Case]
  Push button. Watch poweroff occur.
  [Regression Potential]
  The new rule is pretty tightly bound to the m400 system - so the risk of this rule matching and impacting behavior on a different platform is minimal. This will presumably cause new code to run and read /proc/device-tree/model on other platforms - but this is already done for the m800 system in both utopic and trusty.
