m8xx hang in reboot (fwd)

A little more info.  The hang occurs on this line:

 	dummy = ((immap_t *)IMAP_ADDR)->im_clkrst.res[0];

Which is _supposed_ to generate a machine check I believe.

So I guess my next step is to see if somehow the DER got set and we're
popping into debug mode instead of resetting...

Subject: m8xx hang in reboot

Hey Folks,

I've got an mpc850 based setup running 2.4.27 that, under certain
circumstances, hangs in the the m8xx_restart() function (instead of rebooting)
when I issue the usermode reboot cmd.

I've traced all through the path and confirmed that yes, it is hanging in this
function.  ;-)

I'm still looking over the databook and what this code does.  Just figured I'd
ask around and see if anyone else has seen this behavior.

Thanks,
-Mark
