The question was if the property name should be ext-reset-output or
fsl,ext-reset-output. In my opinion, it should be fsl,ext-reset-output
because it is not a generic property. Tim disagrees.

So we have two options: Change the property name to fsl,ext-reset-output,
which I would accept, or wait for a devicetree maintainer to make a decision.
