Subject: [PATCH v7 03/20] reboot: Print error message if restart handler has duplicated priority

Add sanity check which ensures that there are no two restart handlers
registered using the same priority. This requirement will become mandatory
once all drivers will be converted to the new API and such errors will be
fixed.
