Hi everyone,

This small series is preparatory work for a series that I'm working on
which attempts to establish a formal framework for system restart and
power off.

Guenter has done a lot of good work in this area, but it never got
merged. I think this set is a valuable addition to the kernel because
it converts all odd providers to the established mechanism for restart.

Since this is stretched across both 32-bit and 64-bit ARM, as well as
PSCI, and given the SoC/board level of functionality, I think it might
make sense to take this through the ARM SoC tree in order to simplify
the interdependencies. But it should also be possible to take patches
1-4 via their respective trees this cycle and patches 5-6 through the
ARM and arm64 trees for the next cycle, if that's preferred.

Thanks,
Thierry
