Hi,

Yes, this driver is for pherphials and I think it is reasonble
to placed it at drivers/reset. I'll moved it in next release.

These DT properties looks simpler and better: Use of GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH
and GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW increase readability for HW/SW developer, use
of <0> to indicate holding the reset signal. I'll updated code according
on this. Thanks for your comments.
