Trying to jump to some boot rom address is IMHO always a bad approach
to reboot a system. You should always try to cause a reset  condition
for  the CPU, and thus for all the associated hardware. On 8xx / 8260
systems this is usually done by going through  a  machine  check.  We
have  the  following code in our linuxppc_2_4_devel tree, which works
on ALL 8260 systems, no matter whioch boot loder they use:

static void
m8260_restart(char *cmd)
{   
        __volatile__ unsigned char dummy;
        ulong msr;
    
        cli();
        volatile immap_t *immap = (immap_t *) IMAP_ADDR;
    
        immap->im_clkrst.car_rmr = 1;    /* Checkstop Reset enable */
    
        /* Interrupts and MMU off */
        __asm__ __volatile__ ("mfmsr    %0":"=r" (msr):);
    
        msr &= ~(MSR_ME | MSR_EE | MSR_IR | MSR_DR);
        __asm__ __volatile__ ("mtmsr    %0"::"r" (msr)); 
    
        dummy = ((immap_t *)IMAP_ADDR)->im_clkrst.res[0];
    
        printk("Restart failed\n");
        for (;;);
}
