Hi Enric,

Thanks for the patch.

I don't really understand why there are per-platform hacks in glue
drivers, instead of having per-platform glue drivers, or some other
pluggable hooks.

Instead of calling of_device_is_compatible in each suspend/resume,
which seems quite expensive, how about having a per-device boolean
'needs_reset' or something like that?

Or maybe just have a boolean devicetree property for this?
