Just checked the Rock 5B schematic and it expects the CRU to be used
to perform the hardware reset in case of a thermal runaway, so the
defaults in the RK3588s dtsi are fine.  I had to double-check it. :)

However, now I have some open questions related to interrupt-driven
operation.  I'll research it further and come back with an update.

Please, let me know are you fine with the above-described approach.
