[PATCH] X86: Solve Dell Latitudes do not reboot on x86_64 more generally

[Thomas Renninger]

There are quite some reports that those do not reboot:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/833705
->E6520, E6220
http://www.linux-club.de/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=114459&start=20
->E5520
and some more already are blacklisted

This patch improves the blacklist for all E6xxx and E5xxx Latitudes.

Strange is that on above Ubuntu bug it was mentioned that 32 bit
reboots just fine, which should use the same mechanism than 64 bit
by default (ACPI).

While this should solve the problem on short term for quite some users,
hopefully a more generic way is found sooner or later...
