skiboot now supports "fast reboot", a reboot procedure where skiboot
reinitialises hardware and loads a new kernel without re-IPLing the
machine. At present, fast reboot support is still experimental and is not
enabled by default, however it is intended that it will be enabled by
default in a near-future release.

There may be some circumstances where the user wants to force a full IPL
reboot rather than using fast reboot. Add support for the
OPAL_REBOOT_FULL_IPL reboot type, enabled by writing 1 to
/sys/firmware/opal/force_full_ipl_reboot. On versions of skiboot that
implement the OPAL_REBOOT_FULL_IPL reboot type, this will force an IPL. On
versions that do not, print an error message on reboot and proceed with a
regular reboot (which could be a full IPL or a fast reboot).

Corresponding skiboot patch: http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/697601/

This seemed like a good idea at the time. A sysfs-based flag was the best 
option that came to mind; other suggestions are welcome. Is "full IPL" a 
reasonable term to use or should I try to think of something a bit less 
IBM-ese?
