Also, it's not entirely clear to me why this is really needed.  What
would lead to setting the reipl failing?  The cases that I see are all
cases where the answer is "doomed" and so we might as well just always
do the reboot.  And that then makes things always act the same rather
than adding yet another bogon weird code path for s390
