Architecture: alpha

>Description:
        calling 'reboot' or 'reboot(0x104)' from gdb after a panic or
        trap doesn't work: the kernel says "rebooting" but nothing more
        happen. Using 0x8 doesn't drop the system to srm as expected neither.
>How-To-Repeat:
        have an alpha panic. try to reboot from serial console.
>Fix:
