The firmware update only happens if the device is in patch mode ('PTCH'
in the Mode register - 0x03), which is the expected behavior because the
device waits in that mode until a patch arrives. That is probably the
reason why your first attempt did not work (no update was triggered).
The problem seems to be related to the reset function, as you already
noticed. That function is only called in suspend/resume, if the probe
fails and in the remove function.
Did the probe function fail and if so, could you see why? The reset
function is identical for the tps25750 and tps6598x ('GAID' with no
parameters), so I wonder why that should be the source of the problem.

The driver did not support cold resets before, but that does not mean
that they should not happen like it does for the tps25750. Your fix just
removes the reset function for the tps6598x, and I would like to know
why the reset happened in the fist place.
Thanks and best regards,
