Subject: reboot: rename now misleading __hw_protection_shutdown symbols
Date: Mon, 17 Feb 2025 21:39:45 +0100
The __hw_protection_shutdown function name has become misleading since it
can cause either a shutdown (poweroff) or a reboot depending on its
argument.
To avoid further confusion, let's rename it, so it doesn't suggest that a
poweroff is all it can do.
