Starting with kernel 3.0, Acer Aspire One A110 hangs on reboot

[Uros Vampl]

Hello,

Starting with kernel 3.0, my Acer Aspire One A110 hangs on reboot. Doing 
an internet search, I found that in git commit 
b49c78d4827be8d7e67e5b94adac6b30a4a9ad14 x86, reboot: Acer Aspire One 
A110 reboot quirk

the machine was made to reboot with the bios method. Well, it doesn't 
work here. I reverted that commit and found out that only the kbd method 
(reboot=k) works. So what I did is create a new quirks section for 
machines that only reboot with the kbd method and put the Aspire One 
into it.

No idea if this is the correct solution, all I know is my Aspire One now 
reboots again.
