Like Lucas already mentioned in response to another patch, having a
boolean "enable" argument is suboptimal here. Now according to
documentation the proper reset sequence for clients is something like
this:

	1) set the FLUSH_ENABLE bit for the client
	2) poll the FLUSH_DONE bit for the client
	3) assert reset to the client using the CAR
	4) deassert reset to the client using the CAR
	5) clear the FLUSH_ENABLE bit for the client

This is really inconvenient because we can't flush the client using a
single operation. So I think we'll need two functions here, something
like: tegra_mc_flush_enable/disable(), or tegra_mc_flush_{,de}assert().
Or maybe even: tegra_mc_reset_{,de}assert() to mirror the reset
controller API. I suppose we could even export it using the reset
controller framework.

Doing so would allow us to have power domain DT nodes like this:

	pmc at 0,7000e400 {
		power-domains {
			...

			gpu {
				resets = <&tegra_car 184>,
					 <&mc TEGRA_SWGROUP_GPU>;
				reset-names = "module", "client";
			};

			...
		};
	};

The PMC driver could then grab the "module" and "client" resets and do
something like this:

	reset_control_assert(powergate->rst_client);
	reset_control_assert(powergate->rst_module);
	reset_control_deassert(powergate->rst_module);
	reset_control_deassert(powergate->rst_client);

Optionally the above could be extended with a reset_control_status()-
loop. Alternatively reset_control_assert() would block until the
FLUSH_DONE bit is set.

Stephen, Peter, any thoughts on the above?
