[PATCH] Fix Linux reboot on MT7988 using EFI and PSCI

Signed-off-by: EasyNetDev <devel at easynet.dev>

I'm proposing adding PSCI in DTS for MT7988 SoC which solves the problem
when U-Boot is compiled with CONFIG_PSCI_RESET=y.
If this code in DTS is missing and the system is using U-Boot EFI -> GRUB EFI -> Linux Kernel,
then the Linux kernel is not able to reboot the board on systemctl reboot.

This simple code fixes this issue.
