Agree, free riding. Maybe the API (_optional) will be changed in later. As someone make a point present an idea on http://www.spinics.net/lists/kernel/msg2306677.html Okay, devm_reset_control_get() will be better, anyway the driver has been depend on the CONFIG_RESET_CONTROLLER. -- I will send a new patch for upstream if nobody object it on today.
