Oh OK, it's firmware :D
Yep :D
There's existing logic in kernel/reboot.c to handle a reboot= command
line parameter, which can set the reboot_mode, so my preference would be
that we use that.
Currently we completely ignore the reboot_mode, so there's no backward
compatibility issue.
It looks like the default is REBOOT_COLD, whatever that means. So I
think we could define that on powernv REBOOT_HARD means "do a full IPL".
Sounds good.
Or we could use "force", which already exists, though I can't quite see
what that actually means on x86.
Hmm.
