Isn't the driver called reset-zynqmp.c and reset-zynqmp.o ?

The driver name would be the kbuild modname, which would be
reset-zynqmp rather than zynqmp-reset - given how often you're typing
zynqmp-reset rather than zynqmp-reset, could you have missed it
through looking for the wrong name?

If the driver is built-in, there is no reason it should fail to show
up in /sys/bus/platform/drivers/reset-zynqmp.
