[systemd-devel] Run "ipmitool power cycle" after lib/systemd/system-shutdown scripts

Hello systemd hackers,

After flashing the firmware of some pcie card I need to power cycle
the server to finish the flashing process.
For now I have a simple script in lib/systemd/system-shutdown/ running
"ipmitool power cycle" but I would like to make sure it runs after
other scripts like fwupd.shutdown or mdadm.shutdown

Is there any way to have systemd cleanly power cycle my server instead
of rebooting it ?

pidwait would have been great but it doesn't seems to be available in EL8

Thanks in advance
Etienne
