In the NPCM750 there is two initiated restarts:

   - Software reset
   - WD reset

the Software restart found at NPCM reset driver
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/drivers/reset/reset-npcm.c

In NPCM WD driver the restart is configure as well, I will like to add the
priority so the user will have maximum flexibility if he using both restarts

Thanks,

Tomer
