Where is the binding doc for mediatek,mt8183-ufs0cfg_ao? Is this
simple-mfd just to load the reset driver?

It looks to me like this is just two registers inside ufs0cfg_ao, not a
separate device. Why don't you just add #reset-cells to the parent
node?

Why is this in DT? This should be a table in the reset driver.
