I first acknowledge I am not familiar with what those reset controllers
do in practice. My fear is that we may rely on generic SW pieces that
may not be adapted to passthrough constraints. We must guarantee that
any DMA access attempted by the devices are stopped and any interrupts
gets stopped. Can we guarantee that the reset controller always induce
that? Otherwise we may leave the door opened to badly reset assigned
devices.

if (vdev->reset_control) ?
reset_control_put seems to only check IS_ERR()

Thanks
