[GIT PULL] x86/reboot changes for v3.15

[Ingo Molnar]

Linus,

Please pull the latest x86-reboot-for-linus git tree from:

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git x86-reboot-for-linus

   # HEAD: fb3bd7b19b2b6ef779d18573c10c00c53cd8add6 x86, reboot: Only use CF9_COND automatically, not CF9

Refine the reboot logic around the CF9 and EFI reboot methods, to make 
it more robust. The expectation is for no working system to break, and 
for a couple of reboot-force systems to start rebooting automatically 
again.

 Thanks,

	Ingo
