The problem with alternate encoding is we won't be able to know if
one of the reset methods was disabled previously. For example,
# cat reset_methods
flr,bus # dev->reset_methods = [3, 5, 0, ...]
# echo bus > reset_methods # dev->reset_methods = [5, 0, 0, ...]
# cat reset_methods
bus
Now if an user wants to enable flr
# echo flr > reset_methods # dev->reset_methods = [3, 0, 0, ...]
OR
# echo bus,flr > reset_methods # dev->reset_methods = [5, 3, 0, ...]
either they need to write "default" first then flr or we will need to
reprobe reset methods each time when user writes to reset_method attribute.

I think generally presence of device specific reset method means other
methods are potentially broken. Is it okay to skip this?

Correct. Its similar to exisitng reset_fn bitfield which is removed in this
patch series.
