Also, it's a bit unclear how the reset controller phandle is used
referenced and used by the consumer device.. Maybe setting that up
first in a Linux generic way is a good point starting point.

Maybe something like this along the same way as clocks are set up
(completely untested):

&reset1 {
	iva_reset: reset1 {
		reg = /bits/ 8 <0>;
	};
	gfx_reset: reset1 {
		reg = /bits/ 8 <1>;
	};
	...
};

&iva {
	compatible = "ti,ivahd";
	resets = <&reset1 1>;
	...
};
