The way to ensure that we don't have different instances of the device resetting each
other is to rely on the way the "shared" reset is handled by reset API: 
==========
+	ak4458->reset = devm_reset_control_get_optional_shared(ak4458->dev, NULL);
+	if (IS_ERR(ak4458->reset))
+		return PTR_ERR(ak4458->reset);
==========
