From: Stephen Warren <swarren@xxxxxxxxxx> Prior to commit 3ab8352 "kexec jump", if machine_kexec() returned, sys_reboot() would return -EINVAL. This patch restores this behaviour for the non-KEXEC_JUMP case, where machine_kexec() is not expected to return. This situation can occur on ARM, where kexec requires disabling all but one CPU using CPU hotplug. However, if hotplug isn't supported by the particular HW the kernel is running on, then kexec cannot succeed.
