This seems like a separate patch from the other 19 patches so please send it
separately so I can handle logistics easier in the future.
Ok, I'll send the next version separately.

Why do you even keep this around in the device state container?
As you only use it in the probe() function, use a local variable.
The descriptor will be free():ed by the devm infrastructure anyways.
I think my reasoning for putting the gpio handle into the device
struct was for possibly using it for run-time reset control at some
point. But that could be done later if needed, so I'll go ahead and
make it local.

Nice.

Is this really needed given that you set it low in the
devm_gpiod_get_optional()?
Yep, this is left over from a previous iteration, but it isn't needed now.
I'll remove it.
Steve
