[PATCH] reboot=bios is invalidating cache incorrectly

This patch applies cleanly to 2.4.18 and 2.5.8. It probably also works with all 2.2.x, 2.4.x and 2.5.x kernels.

This fixes a long standing bug that prevented reliable reboots on some platforms.

Robert,

care to specify which platforms? :-) I ask because I am experiencing
reboot hangs between BISO and lilo on Tyan 2462 boards. Apparently others see similar things.
