Hi Rob, Mark,
Best Wishes for 2019!
Can you please provide your opinion on parsing the whole device tree for
"resets" phandle properties to find shared resets, cfr. patch [1] below?
This is a prerequisite for safe generic reset handling for
virtualization on DT-based platforms, cfr. patch [2].
Many thanks in advance!

Subject: [PATCH v3] reset: Exclusive resets must be dedicated to a single
hardware block
In some SoCs multiple hardware blocks may share a reset control.
The reset control API for shared resets will only assert such a reset
when the drivers for all hardware blocks agree.
The exclusive reset control API still allows to assert such a reset, but
that impacts all other hardware blocks sharing the reset.
While the kernel doc comments clearly state that the API for shared
resets applies to reset controls which are shared between hardware
blocks, the exact meaning of exclusive resets is not documented.
Fix the semantic ambiguity with respect to exclusive access vs.
exclusive reset lines by:
1. Clarifying that exclusive resets really are intended for use with
reset controls which are dedicated to a single hardware block,
2. Ensuring that obtaining an exclusive reset control will fail if the
reset is shared by multiple hardware blocks, for both DT-based and
lookup-based reset controls.

Question from Philipp for the DT maintainers:
"I'd still like to hear the device tree maintainers' opinion on
parsing the whole DT for "resets" phandle properties to find shared
resets like this."
Thanks!
v3:
- Make args parameter of __of_reset_is_exclusive() a pointer,
- Print a warning when detecting a shared reset,
- Rebase on top of of_node_put() move,
v2:
- Fix wrong variable in __reset_is_dedicated() loop,
- Add missing of_node_put() in __of_reset_is_dedicated(),
- Document that exclusive reset controls imply they are dedicated to a
single hardware block,
- Drop new dedicated flag and new API reset_control_get_dedicated(),
as exclusive already implies dedicated,
- Rename {__of_,}reset_is_dedicated() to {__of_,}reset_is_exclusive(),
- Reword description.
Note: Exclusive lookup-based reset controls were not tested.
