"Resets" is also a little more complicated, because there are two kinds on the Device Tree bindings universe:

- Reset Controllers (which use the "Reset" bindings)

- Reset GPIOs (which use the "GPIO" bindings)

Our FDT GPIO and generic GPIO interfaces are in need of harmonizing, and I've been thinking about that lately, so hopefully will have some bandwidth to make progress on that front in the coming months.
