Cause

The issue occurs because a power I/O request packet (IRP) expires while it waits for the power arbiter thread to complete the power request. The power arbiter thread waits to lock a resource that is already obtained by another thread. The resource is not released when the system is turned off, and this causes the power IRP to expire.
