Ok.

Ok. I can add a check to prevent setting it, if it is set already.

mmc-utils is providing a enable/disable hwreset feature. But as this
setting is required for my hardware to allow rebooting it, I thought it
would be better if it's in the kernel. So I/the hw doesn't have to
depend on userspace tools.

Nonetheless you're the experts, therefore if you say it shouldn't be in
the kernel/dt I'd be fine with that too. ;-)
