I'd rather stick to the current design in the same way as the most of
the OF-based platform clock drivers. Completely splitting the reset
and clock parts isn't that easy is it seems like (though the main part
has been done in the framework of this patchset). AXI/APB-interface
reset controls are tightly coupled with the AXI/APB-clock domains at
least by having the same CSRs. Due to that the corresponding AXI-clock
domains reset functionality will need to be left in the
drivers/clk/baikal-t1/clk-ccu* module. It makes the movement isn't
that justified and will result in needless code complications and the
code coherency worsening.
