Thanks a lot!

Well, weren't we toying with the idea of using this for the A64 PRCM
support?

Also the driver is actually pretty generic, and I have (renaming)
patches lying around to make this obvious. This is partly driven by a
side project for some (arm64) SoC support, which can happily use that
driver to tackle its device reset support.

So as this is an obvious bug, I'd rather see this fixed now.

Cheers,
Andre.
