Last time I checked you couldn't share GPIOs. If that's no longer the 
case then I can probably make what I need to happen work. It still 
creates an issue that I have multiple PCA954x muxes connected to a 
common reset GPIO so as each mux is probed the PCA954x driver will 
toggle the reset. That's probably OK as the PCA954x is sufficiently 
stateless that the extra resets won't do any harm but if it were a more 
complicated device then there would be issues.

Having some kind of ref-counted reset controller that is implemented 
with GPIOs is probably the better solution. I was kind of surprised that 
nothing existed like that in drivers/reset.

Apologies for the mangled links (they're more secure now at least that's 
what our IS team have been sold).

Actually I kind of expected this feedback. I figured I could start with 
the driver that is currently causing me issues and once the dt-binding 
was considered good enough it might migrate to the i2c core.
