Yes, correct. There is an interesting question however: we have to deal with the same driver being used in some machines that need to use it as the only way to reset the system, as well as the case where you actually want to use some other method. An easy way to handle this would be a boolean device tree property that tells the driver whether or not to register, but we might want to come up with a more sophisticated way to have multiple reset handlers registered an prioritized so we try the "best" one first. Maybe someone else has an opinion on this. If not, just do the property.
