When we soft-reboot (eg, kexec) from one kernel into the next, we need
to ensure that we enter the new kernel in the same processor mode as
when we were entered, so that (eg) the new kernel can install its own
hypervisor - the old kernel's hypervisor will have been overwritten.
In order to do this, we need to pass a flag to cpu_reset() so it knows
what to do, and we need to modify the kernel's own hypervisor stub to
allow it to handle a soft-reboot.
As we are always guaranteed to install our own hypervisor if we're
entered in HYP32 mode, and KVM will have moved itself out of the way
on kexec/normal reboot, we can assume that our hypervisor is in place
when we want to kexec, so changing our hypervisor API should not be a
problem.

Once entering machine_halt() and machine_restart(), local_irq_disable()
is called, and local irq is kept disabled, so the local_irq_disable()
at the end of these two functions are not necessary, remove it.

Make virt_to_idmap() return an unsigned long rather than phys_addr_t.
Returning phys_addr_t here makes no sense, because the definition of
virt_to_idmap() is that it shall return a physical address which maps
identically with the virtual address. Since virtual addresses are
limited to 32-bit, identity mapped physical addresses are as well.
Almost all users already had an implicit narrowing cast to unsigned long
so let's make this official and part of this interface.

This patch is to get correct physical address of the reset function for
PAE systems, which use aliased physical memory for booting.
See the "ARM: mm: Introduce virt_to_idmap() with an arch hook" for details.

Move shutdown and reboot related code to a separate file, out of
process.c. This helps to avoid polluting process.c with non-process
related code.
