For hi3660_reset_probe to be called, you'll have to call
of_platform_populate to probe the hi3660-iomcu children in this case.

I understand that, it still sounds to me like you are organizing the
device tree around limitations of the current code. Instead the device
tree should be organized to best describe the hardware, and the code
should be adapted to support that.

Of course, if you use the flat DT layout everywhere else, I won't try to
block the reset driver because of this issue. I'm just saying nested
nodes in the DT would better describe the real control flow.
