From 5955633e91bfc5cd0a41d8d82259e1d8b32980ef Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael D Labriola Date: Sun, 29 Jan 2012 14:17:22 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] x86/reboot: Skip DMI checks if reboot set by user Skip DMI checks for vendor specific reboot quirks if the user passed in a reboot= arg on the command line - we should never override user choices.
