    MIPS: ralink: Remove ralink_halt() · 891731f6
    NeilBrown 提交于
    ralink_halt() does nothing that machine_halt() doesn't already do, so it
    adds no value.
    
    It actually causes incorrect behaviour due to the "unreachable()" at the
    end. This tells the compiler that the end of the function will never be
    reached, which isn't true. The compiler responds by not adding a
    'return' instruction, so control simply moves on to whatever bytes come
    afterwards in memory. In my tested, that was the ralink_restart()
    function. This means that an attempt to 'halt' the machine would
    actually cause a reboot.
    
    So remove ralink_halt() so that a 'halt' really does halt.
