They are indeed different, but doing nothing in enter_standby() for V4H
is the correct thing.
Maybe the function enter_standby(), could have been better named as
enter_standby_extra() or pre_enter_standby(). As for both on Gen3 and
V4H after enter_standby(), if present, have been called the rest
controller is asserted and the module is powers off.
Only that on Gen3 which have more documentation an extra step to poke
some registers before asserting the reset controller is documented, so
this is what happens in rcsi2_enter_standby_gen3(). I would not be
surprised as we get more documentation for V4H we will add a
rcsi2_enter_standby_gen4() to match updates in the datasheet.
