What about using the below logic?

If ((reset_control_status() == 0) && udelay(x))
	dev_warn(dev, "Deassert failed");

This makes system wake up after STR faster compared to
udelay.

Currently with first status readback() is sufficient for fixing the issue.
But this logic is tested only on few boards.

Adding a warn message to this logic, to check if any of the boards is 
returning reset_control_status() as "0".

Are we ok with this? Please share your views.

Cheers,
Biju
