We're about to introduce an MPIPL reboot type (to take a firmware
assisted kdump style thing), and we maybe should have a reboot type to
force attempting a fast-reboot, and this makes me think if we should add
those in now?
I will probably let Vasant and others answer that.
If the reboot type isn't supported, what should be the behvaiour? Reboot
the default way or don't reboot at all?
Yes, I have addressed that in v3 of this patch at
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/967248/. In case the reboot type isnt
supported or if there is an error invoking it, the patch will revert
back to calling opal_cec_reboot().
