Subject: [PATCH 2/2] power: reset: reboot-mode: Expose sysfs for registered
 reboot_modes

Currently, there is no standardized mechanism for userspace to discover
which reboot-modes are supported on a given platform. This limitation
forces tools and scripts to rely on hardcoded assumptions about the
supported reboot-modes.

Create a class 'reboot-mode' and a device under it to expose a sysfs
interface to show the available reboot mode arguments to userspace. Use
the driver_name field of the struct reboot_mode_driver to create the
device.  For device-based drivers, configure the device driver name as
driver_name.

This results in the creation of:
  /sys/class/reboot-mode/<driver>/reboot_modes

This read-only sysfs file will exposes the list of supported reboot
modes arguments provided by the driver, enabling userspace to query the
list of arguments.
