That's perfect timing, because I was struggling with some hardreset 
issue on OMAP5 yesterday, so I thought as well about that patch.

This is just some more thoughts on that topic more than a pure comment 
on this patch :-)

What I realized is that the main issue was due to the fake hwmods to 
control processor reset lines. So these one has to be removed, it was 
clearly a mistake.

The other issue was due to the wrong association between the reset lines 
and the hwmod. In fact I was trying to create ipu & dsp hwmods, whereas 
these subsystem do not have any direct connection with the main 
interconnect but only through their MMU.
This is exactly what Omar raised when he tried to introduce the MMU hwmods.
And in fact the new name used in OMAP5 are highlight that a little bit 
netter than on OMAP4"

     'ipu':
         'rst_cpu0'
         'rst_cpu1'
         'rst_ipu_mmu_cache'

     'dsp':
         'rst_dsp'
         'rst_dsp_mmu_cache'

     'iva':
         'rst_seq1'
         'rst_seq2'
         'rst_logic'

The concern of the people doing SW in these embedded processors was 
mainly because we were releasing the reset of processor without loading 
any SW first and thus the processor was executing some random instructions.

So if we consider a better hwmods definition, we can potentially fix the 
MMU case:

     'mmu_ipu':
         'rst_ipu_mmu_cache'

     'mmu_dsp':
         'rst_dsp_mmu_cache'

     'iva_config':
         'rst_logic'


But then we do have the processor resets that have to be exposed somewhere.

     'ipu':
         'rst_cpu0'
         'rst_cpu1'

     'dsp':
         'rst_dsp'

     'iva':
         'rst_seq1'
         'rst_seq2'

None of these one should be controlled automatically.

Maybe we should keep that with some mechanism to prevent it for some IP 
like processors .

I guess that with that patch, we cannot enable anymore IPU/DSP and IVA 
at boot time.

Otherwise, it looks fine to me.
