[PATCH v2 1/3] arm64: remove soft_restart() and friends

The implementation of soft_restart() and its subordinate functions
setup_mm_for_reboot(), cpu_soft_restart() and cpu_reset() have
non-trivial dependencies on the state of the caches and the MMU,
making them fragile from a maintenance pov. However, soft_restart()
isn't actually called anywhere, so just remove the whole bunch.
