Title:
  pwr-mlxbf: Several bug fixes for focal

Status in linux-bluefield package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in linux-bluefield source package in Focal:
  New

Bug description:
  SRU Justification:

  [Impact]

  There is are several changes that needs to be made to pwr-mlxbf in focal:
  * There is a race condition between gpio-mlxbf2.c driver being loaded and 
pwr-mlxbf.c being loaded
  * When the module is removed, there is a panic due to NULL pointer access
  * soft reset needs to be replaced by graceful reboot

  [Fix]

  * Fix race condition between gpio-mlxbf2.c driver being loaded and 
pwr-mlxbf.c being loaded
  * Fix panic due to access to NULL pointer when driver is removed via rmmod
  * support graceful reboot instead of soft reset 

  [Test Case]

  * all test cases are for BF2:
  * trigger the gpio toggling from the BMC: ipmitool raw 0x32 0xA1 0x02
    This should trigger a graceful reboot of the DPU.
  * rmmod/modprobe
  * reboot test and make sure the driver is always loaded

  [Regression Potential]

  * Run the 100 reboot test and make sure that the driver is loaded with
  no issues. That the gpio graceful reboot works.
