+ *			255:	Highest priority restart handler, will
+ *				preempt all other restart handlers
+ *
+ *	Registers a function with code to be called to restart the
+ *	system.
+ *
+ *	Registered functions will be called from machine_restart as last
+ *	step of the restart sequence (if the architecture specific
+ *	machine_restart function calls do_kernel_restart - see below
+ *	for details).
+ *	Registered functions are expected to restart the system immediately.
+ *	If more than one function is registered, the restart handler priority
+ *	selects which function will be called first.
+ *
+ *	Restart handlers are expected to be registered from non-architecture
+ *	code, typically from drivers. A typical use case would be a system
+ *	where restart functionality is provided through a watchdog. Multiple
+ *	restart handlers may exist; for example, one restart handler might
+ *	restart the entire system, while another only restarts the CPU.
+ *	In such cases, the restart handler which only restarts part of the
+ *	hardware is expected to register with low priority to ensure that
+ *	it only runs if no other means to restart the system is available.
+ *
+ *	Currently always returns zero, as atomic_notifier_chain_register()
+ *	always returns zero.
