So when the device is reactivated the possible stale next_event value can prevent the device to be reprogrammed as it claims to wait on a event already. This is the root cause of the resurfacing suspend/resume problem, where systems need key press to come back to life. Fix this by setting next_event to KTIME_MAX when the device is shut down. Use a separate function for shutdown which takes care of that and only keep the direct set mode call in the broadcast code, where we can not touch the next_event value.
