Title: System fails to power off completely on Kernel 7.1 / 7.2 (Hardware remains active on Gigabyte B550) Issues & Assistance

I have this issue since 7.1 rc. It’s all related to new amd_dynamic epp features introduced in 7.1. It seems to work if you logout from desktop session first and poweroff afterwards. On my second partition I installed Manjaro and installed latest Kernel 7.2 rc0. It’s all working there.
