That's because I've been sitting on
kernel-reboot-add-devm_register_reboot_notifier.patch since March
because it has no users.

This patch adds a user.  Have you identified other sites which
can/should use devm_register_reboot_notifier()?  I guess quite a lot,
so it's a matter of alerting developers to the new interface.  I
wonder how.  A checkpatch rule would do it, but that's new ground for
checkpatch.
