Using platform APIs means using platform_*() functions, not of_*()
functions, which are open-firmware/DT related. Regmap can be used to
operate on registers mapped as __iomem, which is different from platform
APIs.

Is having a lock even necessary? Do the reset and clk controls live
within a shared register where we would need to prevent one driver from
accessing that register at the same time as the other?
