Since this impacts more SoCs than OMAP4, + Vishal.

I think you might have noticed that the function gets reused for more
SoCs than just OMAP4. Did you consider the impact on other SoCs?


A) I would suggest you should download the TRMs from TI website and
check the impact this change has for all other platforms.
B) on certain platforms like DRA74 SoCs, warm reset cannot be used -
instead all warm resets are converted to cold resets. what that means is
that you'd probably want to update the reset reason to a PMIC scratch
pad register.
