Ok. If you do want a soft reset, you use the kernel command line option "reboot=warm", which re-instates the old behaviour. I got several mails telling me that cold reboots works on some hardware that didn't use to reboot cleanly before. As the cold reboot is the safer thing to do anyway (anything which successfully warm-boots should cold-boot no problem) it's now the default (it will be the default in 2.0.22+ too), and you can override it it you want to.
