I don't know which Linux kernel you're running, but U-Boot triggers a
checkstop reset of the CPU to reboot the system.  If  this  does  not
restart the board, then there is a hardware problem.

You should probably contact TQ Support with such a question. I  doubt
that this is a topic for this mailing list. Try asking Andreas Widder, 
08153-9308-235, <Andreas.Widder at tqc.de>

See function m8xx_restart() in "arch/ppc/kernel/m8xx_setup.c"; in our
linuxppc_2_4_devel tree the  same  mechanism  as  in  U-Boot  (i.  e.
checkstop reset) is used.
