[PATCH v3 3/3] reboot: refactor and comment the cpu selection code

[Matteo Croce]

From: Matteo Croce <mcroce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Small improvements to the code, without changing the way it works:
- use a local variable, to avoid a small time lapse where reboot_cpu
  can have an invalid value
- comment the code which is not easy to understand at a glance
- merge two identical code blocks into one
- replace pointer arithmetics with equivalent array syntax
