So I've booted quite a number of times with various large sleep values
(between 1 and 10ms), and never seen a problem. Our hardware guys also
confirm that there should be no such thing as a "too long" pulse.

So do you want me to respin, moving the gpio request into the reset
function (i.e. not storing the descriptor in the ad74413r_state as Nuno
pointed out), requesting it in asserted state, and then, if the gpio was
found, just do the fsleep(50) and then deassert it?
