You can try the kernel parameter "reboot=(reboot mode)" to try and make
the system reboot in different ways:
warm Don't set the cold reboot flag
cold Set the cold reboot flag
bios Reboot by jumping through the BIOS (only for X86_32)
smp Reboot by executing reset on BSP or other CPU (only for X86_32)
triple Force a triple fault (init)
kbd Use the keyboard controller. cold reset (default)
acpi Use the RESET_REG in the FADT
efi Use efi reset_system runtime service
pci Use the so-called "PCI reset register", CF9
force Avoid anything that could hang.
If a non-default mode works better, then you should send a report to
linux-kernel about it. Contrary to the list above, I think acpi is the
default at this point.
