I think you do not need the compatible. You can just detect whether the reset is present.
That would weaken the error check. If we're running on the A31 and are missing our reset property, it would go unnoticed.
We've been doing it this way with the mmc controller and the usb hosts though. IIRC you once said in the older SoCs, the reset control is tied to the clock gate in the hardware.
The _optional variant is also funny, though I understand it is a design of the reset controller framework.
Yes, I know. But that doesn't prevent that design from being better.
