ah, you're right of course

I just realized again that reset_control_reset is a completely separate
operation (not related to assert / deassert).

What I was originally getting at is that I don't see any assert-counterpart.
So if the reset-control is already deasserted, nothing will happen on some
designs.

For example on Rockchip SoCs the reset controller needs the signal to be
high to assert the reset and the dw_mmc part of the manual explicitly says
that the "reset_n should be asserted(active-low) for at least two clocks of
clk or cclk_in".

So I would expect something like

reset_control_assert(reset);
usleep_range(x, y);
reset_control_deassert(reset);

instead of only trying to deassert the reset.

It's Jaehoon's call and that change above is pretty small, but generally
introducing things unrelated to the change you actually want to make is not
that nice - that's what separate patches are for :-) .
