We should really leave the support for doing this via GPIO in place for
backwards compatibility I think, we could mark it as deprecated in the
binding document.  Otherwise this makes sense to me and solves a real
problem we have with the handling of resets so we should look into doing
this for new bindings.

One thing I'm not clear on is if there's some way to ensure that we
don't have different instances of the device resetting each other
without them noticing?  Shouldn't be an issue in practice for the use
here.
