Subject: [U-Boot] [PATCH 2/3] mpc85xx: Add a board-specific restart hook

Dear "Moffett, Kyle D",

You can call halt() or panic() as last stage of your reset
implementation.


Heh. Mike writes the same ;-)

This is not acceptable, as changes behaviour: panic() will halt the
system, not reset it.

Best regards,
