You're right. I'd also note that the problem manifested only after 3edfb7bd76bd.
But yes, that's a minor detail. Documenting precisely is good, because problem
is not solved yet due that second reset.
Konrad, is there any public docs about GPIOs on this secure peripherals?
It it somehow related to Chain of Trust? [1]. I guess it's not, because once we
boot Linux all bootloader stuff is over.
I guess with gpio-reserved-ranges = <85 4> I solved problems with gpiolib,
which controls tlmm, right?
Is there any other GPIO related setup?
BTW downstream kernel (3.10.73) uses gpiochip:
