My guess is that the poweroff_delay applies to APM/ACPI power off delay.
kproc_shutdown_wait determines how long we wait for the various system
processes to shut down.  When you shut down the machine and it says
"Waitinf 60 seconds for blah-blah to shutdown...", that 60 seconds is
what kproc_shutdown_wait sets.
