Yes, enabling clock with reset deassertion might not reset the module if
the clock domain is in hardware supervised mode.

I will see if that is acceptable.

Another option that would have to be explored is invoking device_reset()
(taking care of clear, deassert & status checking as you suggested)
midway through pm_run_time_get_sync(), when the clockdomain is in
software supervised mode with reset driver taking care of any particular
sequence in the case of multiple reset signals, instead of the IP driver
requiring to take care of it.
