Relative imports are generally not allowed. It sometimes suggests
layering violations.

I'm not convinced the complexity and ugliness of partially registering
a device in order to be able to reset it, is worth the effort when we
have a simpler solution of just using the ID values in DT.

Give the merge window, i will mark this as change request for the
moment.
