[Xen-devel] [PATCH v2] x86/EFI: allow reboot= overrides when running under EFI

["Jan Beulich" <JBeulich@xxxxxxxx>]

By default we will always use EFI reboot mechanism when
running under EFI platforms. However some EFI platforms
are buggy and need to use the ACPI mechanism to
reboot (such as Lenovo ThinkCentre M57). As such
respect the 'reboot=' override and DMI overrides
for EFI platforms.

- BOOT_INVALID is just zero
- also consider acpi_disabled in BOOT_INVALID resolution
- duplicate BOOT_INVALID resolution in machine_restart()
- don't fall back from BOOT_ACPI to BOOT_EFI (if it was overridden, it
  surely was for a reason)
- adjust doc change formatting

v2: Update reboot_type prior to calling efi_reset_system(), as
    requested by Andrew.
