The current reset framework API does not allow to release what is done by
reset_control_reset(), IOW decrement triggered_count. Add the new
reset_control_resettable() call to do so.

When reset_control_reset() has been called once, the counter
triggered_count, in the reset framework, is incremented i.e the resource
under the reset is in-use and the reset should not be done again.
reset_control_resettable() would be the way to state that the resource is
no longer used and, that from the caller's perspective, the reset can be
fired again if necessary.

This patch will fix a usb suspend warning seen on the libretech-cc
related to the shared reset line. This warning was addressed by the
previously reverted commit 7a410953d1fb ("usb: dwc3: meson-g12a: fix shared
reset control use")
Could you also send a patch that shows how your new feature can be used
to fix the problem that was originally fixed by that patch (and still
exists, now that it was reverted.)

Thanks,

Kevin
