+- secure-resets : specifies the Phandle list secure world shall use
+  for the related reset controller(s) whereas property "resets" specifies
+  the reset controller Phandle list non-secure shall use. This
+  configuration can apply for example when a hardware reset controller can
+  only be accessed by secure world and this one opens a software service,
+  as a SCMI reset domain, for non-secure world to access the resource when
+  platform assigns the reset control to non-secure world, i.e.:
+
+  resets = <&scmi_rst 0>, <&scmi_rst 1>;
+  secure-resets = <&rst 5>, <&rst 7>;
+  reset-names = "int", "ext";
+
+  Such device description relaxes constraints on device tree modifications
+  when one, a user or a bootloader, needs to assign a resource to secure
+  or non-secure worlds. Indeed, this allows only "status" and "secure-status"
+  to be set while the rest of the device description in the node remains
+  unchanged.
