Do you have an idea how this situation should look from user space? Just using 
LINUX_REBOOT_CMD_RESTART2 with the param won't work if the reboot mode also 
has to be set to work - but that's also not the case on all boards.

Just LINUX_REBOOT_CMD_RESTART2 works fine on newer qcom SoCs that iirc store it 
in a pmic register that seems to survive a hard reboot.

Would it be a good idea to introduce a new dt property for e.g.
syscon-reboot-mode that makes it switch to warm reboot mode when a reboot mode 
is passed to the kernel? That way user space wouldn't need to care whether a 
particular board needs warm reboot or can just use the default hard reboot.

Luca
