I was trying to figure out what this "reset" was defined to do and I
looked for the device tree bindings. They don't seem to exist. Was
that an oversight?

In any case, I'm not convinced that your patch is correct. Timing
diagrams often show a needed delay between adjusting a reset GPIO and
turning on/off the power. The timing diagrams can sometimes show a
required delay on both sides. I guess at the moment the only user of
this reset GPIO has a symmetric delay, but I can totally expect that
someone could come along and say that they needed 10 ms on one side
and 1 ms on the other side...
