Oops, I did reply to this on April 29, but accidentally dropped
all CCs, which made it disappear from your radar, too?

And you replied on April 30, also in private:

| Let's not bother. I doubt H1 will get support for a reset controller as
| that's an old platform, and the DT bindings thus don't matter too much.
