But such an vops would allow me to provide a Qualcomm-specific way of
toggling the GPIO that is connected to the UFS_RESET pin on the
Hynix/Micron memory.

But acquiring and toggling GPIOs is not a Qualcomm thing, it's a
completely generic thing, and as it's not a chip-internal line it is a
GPIO and not a reset - regardless of SoC vendor.
Further more, it's optional so boards that does not have this pin
connected will just omit the property in their hardware description
(DeviceTree).


So I think the halting part here is that we don't have a representation
of the memory device's resources, because this is really a matter of
toggling the reset pin on the memory device.
