That, btw. is broken. ;)

Right after having send the mail, I've became that intuition, had a look
and ... notifier.h does state the following:

* atomic_notifier_chain_unregister(),
blocking_notifier_chain_unregister(),
* and srcu_notifier_chain_unregister() _must not_ be called from within
* the call chain.

(The reboot-notifier chain is of type blocking_notifier_chain)

So I've picked up one user of reboot_notifier by random and had the luck
to choose a broken one. ;)

I will make a patch and will have a look if the same failure can be
found elsewhere. There aren't that much users of the reboot-notifier, so
it shouldn't cost me that much time.

Regards,

Alexander Holler
