[PATCH] powerpc/4xx: Add optional "reset_type" property to control reboot via dts

By setting "reset_type" to one of the following values, the default
software reset mechanism may be overidden. Here the possible values of
"reset_type":

  1 - PPC4xx core reset
  2 - PPC4xx chip reset
  3 - PPC4xx system reset (default)

This will be used by a new PPC440SPe board port, which needs a "chip
reset" instead of the default "system reset" to be asserted.
