In my point of view the driver is not broken as such but an independent piece
(reset) which is missing, since this driver compiles and works fine if that
reset piece is added. You are right in that this shouldn't have been probed
since it's known that the reset piece is missing. Maybe we should just set
"status = disabled" in dra7.dtsi and when that reset piece is added enable it
back in dra7-evm.dts?

Thanks
