Subject: [PATCH RFC] power: reset: restart-poweroff: convert to module

From: Alexander Sverdlin <alexander.sverdlin@...mens.com>

The necessity of having a fake platform device for a generic, platform
independent functionality is not obvious.
Some platforms requre device tree modification for this, some would require
ACPI tables modification, while functionality may be useful even to
end-users without required expertise. Convert the platform driver to
a simple module.

This RFC is merely to understand if this approach would be accepted.
Converting to "tristate" could follow or preceed this patch.
