This reverts commit cf450136bf.
It breaks reboot on at least one Thinkpad T43, as reported by Jörg Otte:
"On reboot it shuts down as normal.
The last lines displayed are:
>Unmounting temporary filesystems.. [OK]
>Deactivating swap... [OK]
>Unmounting local filesystems... [OK]
>Will now restart
> Restarting system
Then I hear it accessing the cd-drive, but then it's being stuck."
Jörg bisected the regression to this commit.
That commit fixes another machine (see
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11533
for details) that has a BIOS bug and doesn't support ACPI reset.
However, at least one of those other reporters no longer even has the
machine in question, and had a different workaround to begin with.
Besides, it clearly was a buggy BIOS. Let's not break the correct case
to fix that case.
