[PATCH v2 5/5] reset: simple: read back to make sure changes are applied

Read back the register after setting or clearing a reset bit to make
sure that the changes are applied to the reset controller hardware.
Theoretically, this avoids the write to stay stuck in a store buffer
during the delay of an assert-delay-deassert sequence, and makes sure
that the reset really is asserted for the specified duration.
