If you add the resets property later, that's a breaking change to the DT,
because existing devicetrees will not have that property. So you would have to
make the reset consumer in the driver optional, even if it's not really
optional, to work with older DTs. So it is _possible_ to add incrementally, but
not recommended because it adds "legacy" code that never really goes away.

It's okay to define the binding as requiring the resets property now, even
before the reset controller driver is merged. You just won't be able to add the
I2C controller to the DTS until the reset controller binding is merged. But
since the reset controller is the same IP block as the clock controller, its
binding should be available soon anyway.
