I don't think this detail belongs here. In general we are going to reset
them all if we have the GPIO.

Add the GPIO to the existing example rather than having a new one.

Yes, I am going to change it.

As already pointed out, there is a lot of accidental stuff in here.

I'll review again once that is sorted out. For now I'll ignore it.
If I weren't on a train and bored, I'd probably just have waited for v2.

Use return dev_err_probe(). In general good to have because of pretty printing
errors messages etc, but in this case you might get a deferral request and
that call adds a bunch of debug info for probe deferal.

There isn't a lot going on in that function, so I'd pull all the code down

Thanks for the suggestions, I rewrote the code with all these points, I passed the tests again and everything seems correct.

Subject: [PATCH] iio: light: bh1750: Add hardware reset support via GPIO

Some BH1750 sensors require a hardware reset before they can be
detected on the I2C bus. This patch adds support for an optional
reset GPIO that can be specified in the device tree.

The reset sequence pulls the GPIO low and then high before
initializing the sensor, which enables proper detection with
tools like i2cdetect.

Update the devicetree binding documentation to include the new
reset-gpios property with examples.
