Hello.

Driver code never touches "rstn" signal in atomic context, so there's
no need to implicitly put such restriction on it by using gpio_set_value

fix that.

We need to make sure we are not assuming it can be called in such a context in the future now. But that is something we can worry about if it comes up.

As a an example of where such restriction might be inconvenient,
consider a hardware design where "rstn" is connected to a pin of I2C/SPI
GPIO expander chip.

Is this a real life issue you run into?
