Is managing the reset line actually optional though? I can't test atm as I don't have
access to my board, but quite often if the IP's aren't taken out of reset reads / writes
to the perhpiheral will hang the SoC.

If managing the reset line isn't optional then I think the correct fix is to add
depends on RESET_CONTROLLER in the kconfig.

This will then do the right thing for randconfig builds as well.

regards,

Peter.
