I too would have loved to have it in such a clean way and was initially proceeding in that direction, but there is an issue specific to OMAP family SoC's, which was required to be taken care of (even though present use case for AM335x/AM43x would work [as it does not have hardware supervised clockdomain mode] with a small change in platform level power management support code - a generic one shared with other OMAP family SoC's) For a module to be reset, clock domain to which the module clock belongs should be set to software supervised mode. During "pm_runtime_get_sync", in OMAP platform level handling code, it first put clockdomain into software supervised mode, enables clock to module, and once module is ready, module will be put to hardware supervised mode. In hardware supervised mode, reset may not happen. So if device_reset() is done after pm_runtime_get_sync(), reset may not happen as by the time device_reset() is called, clockdomain would be in hardware supervised mode. But in other case, as reset is already deasserted when pm_runtime_get_sync() is called, module would be reset as it first puts to software supervised mode. And device reset would happen only upon enabling clock to module (if reset was deasserted) by pm_runtime_get_sync(), so reset status has to be checked after pm call, preventing us having device_reset() before pm_runtime_get_sync(), or else in that case we have to sacrifice on reset status checking (which may not be reliable) Another alternative would have been to integrate this reset handling in low level power management code thus hiding all reset handling from driver, but as far as I know the reset sequence to be done is sometimes IP specific, preventing it.
