Currently we're not asserting hardreset in the hwmod code during _reset().
I had that patch in the series at some point, but took it out before
posting it. So maybe that might resolve this particular issue. Also
sounds like we should make sure that we keep the processor IPs in
hardreset until some driver explicitly releases it; we'll need to make
sure the code does that too.
