That's for the device reset/idle? We should not do that in hwmod code
except in late_initcall for unclaimed devices as discussed earlier. We
discussed setting up the reset function in the device specific headers
so both device and hwmod code can call them as needed.

Right.. The timers are a pain right now as they need to be initialized
early. Everything else can and should be initialized at the device probe
time, or from a late_initcall for the unclaimed devices.

Cool yeah few more dependencies remain still.
