I don't think it's an abuse... You need to look into the corresponding TRM [1]. 4 bits I need to tweak (and one magic number into unlock register) are randomly placed at random memory adresses and otherwise adjacent bits have random unrelated functions from random unrelated subsystems. If it's not syscon, I don't know what it is. It has a reset HW block, as you and Inochi have correctly pointed out, for other purposes, for resetting the SoC IP blocks. The overall SoC reset is complete mamba jamba. I was thinking now about a syscon driver, which will register_restart_handler()... Inochi, do you have more insights into it? You've mentioned RTC and 8051... Looking into TRM I don't get it, why a thing blessed to do all the housekeeping (and called "System Controller" in imx8, for instance) happen to have RTC_ prefix... Would RTC subsystem maintainer be happy with a monster driver which has ties to all other subsystems?
