Hi,

I reviewed the patch and it looks good to me.
I tested it with this script which passes now with Nathan's fix:

for i in cold warm hard soft gpio; do
echo $i > mode
read j <mode
[ $i = $j ] || echo "mode $i = $j"
done

for i in bios acpi kbd triple efi cf9_force cf9_safe; do
echo $i > type
read j <type
[ $i = $j ] || echo "type $i = $j"
done

for i in $(seq 0 $(nproc --ignore=1)); do
echo $i > cpu
read j <cpu
[ $i = $j ] || echo "cpu $i = $j"
done

for i in 0 1; do
echo $i >force
read j <force
[ $i = $j ] || echo "force $i = $j"
done

While writing the script I found that in the documentation I left for
'type' the values from
Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt, which is 'pci' for
cf9_force reboot.
While at it, should we update the doc with the values 'cf9_force' and
'cf9_safe', or rename to 'pci' and 'pci_safe' to be coherent with the
kernel cmdline?

In any case, kernel-parameters.txt doesn't mention that reboot=q does
the 'cf9_safe' reboot type, so it must be fixed anyway.

Regards,
