I respect your attempt to keep the code slim and modular by making the
reset functionality loadable, but we can't expect users to figure out
what module they need to load to make their device work.  It needs to be
automatic.  One way we could achieve that and still keep your premise of
loadable reset modules would be a lookup table in vfio-platform to
translate a device compatibility ID to a reset module name.  We could
then do a request_module() to auto-load the reset module if one exists.
Maybe the ID table could even live in the reset driver, much like PCI
IDs live in those drivers.  We also have the complication that there's
no direct module dependency for the reset module(s), so they would need
to be explicitly listed to install them into an initramfs.

If we take that approach, we're quickly building infrastructure that
gets more bloated than a few reset functions buried directly into
vfio-platform.  Then we may wonder how many reset functions are we
reasonably going to get.  If you don't have more than a couple in mind,
maybe we should just embed them into vfio-platform and worry about
creating something more dynamic when the need presents itself.  Thanks,

Alex
