Got it. Thank you for explanation. But, IMO that means that the consumer driver should have knowledge of low-level reset implementation, which is not generic API? Otherwise, I don't see a problem to implement asset/deassert sequence in .reset op in this particular reset-brcmstb.c low-level driver. ~Stan
