I did consider adding clearing the bits to the actual CRC PMIC driver, but this seemed like a cleaner solution and it gives a much nicer (debug) interface then raw register access. Also after clearing the wake + reset reasons they are gone and cannot be retreived using debugfs regmap accesses. This driver caches the values before clearing them. >> Specifically if the WAKESRC register contains 0x01 (wake by powerbutton) >> on reboot then the firmware on some tablets turns the reboot into >> a poweroff.

Note this seems to be a thing on BYT tablets which shipped with Android and lack an EC compared to other BYT tablets with an CRC PMIC. So I think things have been hacked around a bit here to deal with the lack of an EC. I doubt this will be in the official docs, with that said thank you for the offer to look this up. Note for later BYTCR (Cost Reduced) tablets not having an EC is normal, but these are pre BYTCR Android tablets actually AFAICT and their Windows counterparts (same motherboard with some different components do have an EC).
