This seems like a lot of boilerplate to register a lookup. Can we have
something like phy_create_lookup() instead where there is just a single
function call to register a single lookup? This will be much easier to
use in the davinci PSC driver.

void reset_add_lookup(struct reset_controller_dev *rdev, int index,
		      const char *dev_id, const char *con_id);
