Ignore reset_sw_reset which indicates rebooted by software.
- What I did
Correct reboot cause when reboot via power cycle by ignoring reset_sw_reset.
process-reboot-cause has the following logic:
Currently we implement "reboot" command via using power cycle. After a power-cycle reboot the reset_sw_reset contains a "1". Originally chassis reboot-cause handling treats it as a hardware-caused reboot and returns it to process-reboot-cause. In this case, the process-reboot-cause treats it as the reboot cause which is wrong.
To resolve that, just don't return hardware reboot cause on reset_sw_reset.
- How I did it
Don't return hardware reboot cause on reset_sw_reset.
- How to verify it
reboot DUT and then check the reboot cause
