Hi All,
Dropping the reset attributes was discussed a while back and no
one could come up with a reason for having them. Unless anyone
does have a good reason, lets drop these before we move the
relevant drivers out of staging.
This is the only way that userspace can re-initialise the device (if someone
modified the calibration settings, and wants to get back to the factory
setting).
That doesn't mean it's necessary - it just means that is what it was there
for.
Indeed, it had a usecase. In my view if people go fiddlying with those
without knowing what they are doing then then deserve to need to reboot
or remove and reinsert the module!
