I need the same solution for WSA884x speaker, for which Mark rejected
simple shared GPIO (even though it would work there), so I am trying to
solve it. It's basically the same case. Now, I am waiting on answer from
Sean Anderson whether he continued his work on reset-gpios controller
from two years ago. Rob wanted handling reset-gpios by generic reset
framework, which would solve these simple cases, here and mine, nicely.

Best regards,
