I don't know the PSCI spec, but it looks like with this code it's not
possible to set a reboot mode (in DT) and at the same time instruct
the firmware whether a warm or a cold reboot was requested.

Doing warm reboot is useful if e.g. RAM contents needs to be retained
for crash recovery handling, or other reasons, while in normal cases
doing a more secure cold reboot.

On the other hand, of course it's useful to be able to specify the
reboot target for normal reboots.

Is this a problem with the PSCI spec or with this specific change
geared at the Qcom implementation?

I believe usual kernel style is to use lower case for
hex values.

dito.
