Thank you for your feedback.
I understand your concern about the reset controller. In the TH1520 SoC,
the GPU doesn't have its own reset controller. Instead, its reset is
managed through the power domain's registers as part of the power-up
sequence.
According to the Video Image Processing Manual 1.4.1 [1], the GPU
requires the following steps to power up:
1) Enable the GPU clock gate.
2) After 32 core clock cycles, release the GPU soft reset
Since these steps are closely tied to power management, I implemented
the reset functionality within the power-domain driver.
Because the GPU doesn't support the resets property, introducing a reset
controller wouldn't align with the existing device tree well.

I see your concern. The VOSYS subsystem's address space includes
registers for various components, such as clock gates and reset
controls, which are scattered throughout the address space as specified
in the manual 4.4.1 [2]. Initially, I attempted to use a shared syscon
regmap for access, but I realize this might not be the best approach.
To address this, I'll specify the 'reg' property in each node to define
the address ranges explicitly fragmenting the address space for the VOSYS
manually.
vosys_clk: clock-controller at ffef528050 {
compatible = "thead,th1520-clk-vo";
reg = <0xff 0xef528050 0x0 0x8>;
#clock-cells = <1>;
};
pd: power-domain at ffef528000 {
compatible = "thead,th1520-pd";
reg = <0xff 0xef528000 0x0 0x8>;
#power-domain-cells = <1>;
};
I would be happy to proceed like this if that's okay.
