I think a separate pseudo-device is necessary a generic solution. So I guess I will revive my patchset.

Sean and Krzysztof,

I see a lot of value in a generic reset-gpio driver that you have both tried to get accepted in the past. I support boards that have a number of SPI and I2C devices that often have GPIO resets wired to them that are pulled in hardware to the in-reset state and find no support in the various drivers for reset handling. I've often wondered why a generic gpio reset wasn't supported in the SPI/I2C cores like it is for some other subsystems.

The approach of a gpios-reset solution makes sense to me.

Will you be submitting a follow-on series to your previous attempts?

Best Regards,

Tim
