Subject[34-longterm 118/179] x86: Make Dell Latitude E5420 use reboot=pci
Date
From: Daniel J Blueman <daniel.blueman@gmail.com>

-------------------
This is a commit scheduled for the next v2.6.34 longterm release.
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/paulg/longterm-queue-2.6.34.git
If you see a problem with using this for longterm, please comment.
-------------------

commit b7798d28ec15d20fd34b70fa57eb13f0cf6d1ecd upstream.

Rebooting on the Dell E5420 often hangs with the keyboard or ACPI
methods, but is reliable via the PCI method.

[ hpa: this was deferred because we believed for a long time that the
recent reshuffling of the boot priorities in commit
660e34cebf0a11d54f2d5dd8838607452355f321 fixed this platform.
Unfortunately that turned out to be incorrect. ]
