Currently, pressing the power button results in the EC powering off the
system without letting the OS cleanly execute its shutdown procedures.
Sending command 0x3e with an argument of 1 to the EC tells it to route
power button events to the host so that the OS can determine what to do.
This command was found in the ec/google/wilco code in coreboot, which is
used on Dell's Latitude Chromebooks. Based on the CONFIG_EC_GOOGLE_WILCO
help text, the "Wilco" ECs run a modified version of Dell's typical
Latitude EC firmware, so it is likely that the two implementations share
commands. Examining LPC traffic on the Latitude E6400 did show that
vendor firmware was sending a 0x3e command to the EC, and reimplementing
it in coreboot allowed power button events to be handled by the OS.
