Looks all right. The SoC vs whole chip reset signal big is an
Aspeed-specific extension AFAICT.

The external reset exists also in the Faraday FTWDT010 block, in the
same bit. (No coincidence...) but neither the Gemini or the MOXA ART
is using it as far as I know.

It's no big deal, I can rewrite the patches in the end of the series on top
of that stuff also adding this functionality.

The "aspeed,reset-type" is fine since it is Aspeed-only.

External reset is part of the Faraday IP block so it should be
"faraday,external-reset-signal" or so.

I will try to see if I can find the patches and comment directly.
