I'm not sure what mine is, but it's from a Dell, and
all I really know about it, is it's an Intell too,
with Wake-on-LAN.

>shutdown -p now

Used to work on this system around 4.6-STABLE, then
stopped for some reason, now, running 4.9-STABLE I've
removed APM from my kernel and added: 

device          acpica

Now, shutdown -p works again.  I don't know if that
will work for you too, but if you're upto it, it's
worth a shot.
