The Amlogic ARM Mali Midgard requires reset controls to power on and
software reset the GPU, adds these as optional in the bindings.

How many? Sounds like 1, but the dts has 2. There's also a similar
patch for Allwinner[1]. I don't want to see a different number of
resets and different names for each vendor. So first figure out how
many resets the IP block has. You'll have to find someone with access
to the TRM.

I can answer for Amlogic, they have a reset for the bus interface and the GPU IP itself.

You are asking something impossible ;-) We can assume it has a single reset interface,
but vendors can add more to reset some glue HW. So we will need some variant per-vendor,
sorry to annoy you !
