IMHO "fixes" tag should be for "L2 cache" commit not for "use delayed reset
assertion" one. Without L2 cache being enabled the delayed reset assertion
code worked fine (even though in theory it was wrong).

Please don't do that. We should not replace one regression with the
other one. If you want to revert something it would be better to revert
the patch adding L2 cache nodes for Exynos4 SoCs for now. However we
should not be reverting anything IMO.
The regression fix patch is simple and is working. I would really prefer
to have it applied now (to fix suspend and cpuidle v4.0-rc1 regressions
finally and not keep code broken for months as we do now). We can always
revisit it to something more 'perfect' later when we have more data.
