Thanks for addressing all of this. I believe we are much closer now.
A few more comments below, that I could only think now with this
new version.

you are missing spaces around '*'... should be /* Comment */
                                                ^       ^

but I also don't believe that you need this chunk at all
since reset struct should be zeroed on allocation.
probably need a double check to be sure.

probably good to keep this line

Atomic is really not needed because the gt_resets are serialized
but something like test_and_dec maybe could help to get a cleaner
code here. But really up to you.

we should never add obvious redundant comments. The line below is
enough for a code reader.

I don't like other components touching variables directly like this.
we should probably have a xe_fake_reset(gt) function in xe_gt.c
that does this set and call the reset async below.

	please add documentation here.
	/**
