Actually, the opposite is true.

The kernel should not make any assumptions about what the bootloader has
or has not done.  We need to have a kernel that can boot from any
bootloader (or none, like using kexec) and be able to start from a known
hardware state.

Any use of HWMOD_INIT_NO_IDLE, HWMOD_INIT_NO_RESET should be a rare
exception and well documented.
