| Yeah, FETs + MPU beat caps :-) Powering the MPU becomes a bit tricky,
| though, since we can't use the secondary side of the PMU. We could
| use VB_SYS, though.

We would need to hit SHUTDOWN or something within some tens of ms to
stop it trying to power up completely from USB insert, etc if previously
otherwise unpowered since we come up at the same time as the PMU
basically then.  No real problem.  And VB_SYS has the big advantage it
is already "mixed" from the power sources.

That's a whole other (zombie) battle :-)
