Merge tag 'restart-handler-for-v3.18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/groeck/linux-staging

Pull restart handler infrastructure from Guenter Roeck:
 "This series was supposed to be pulled through various trees using it,
  and I did not plan to send a separate pull request.  As it turns out,
  the pinctrl tree did not merge with it, is now upstream, and uses it,
  meaning there are now build failures.

  Please pull this series directly to fix those build failures"

* tag 'restart-handler-for-v3.18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/groeck/linux-staging:

  watchdog: alim7101: register restart handler with kernel restart handler
  watchdog: moxart: register restart handler with kernel restart handler
  arm: support restart through restart handler call chain
  arm64: support restart through restart handler call chain
  power/restart: call machine_restart instead of arm_pm_restart
  kernel: add support for kernel restart handler call chain
