Yeah, I'm sure there are more of these.

Right, I was referring to of_reset_control_get() but obviously
of_reset_control_get_exclusive() could still get a devres version so
that sentence in parenthesis doesn't make much sense.

I must have mistakingly imagined that the latter also retrieved the
struct device_node from a struct device like the current devres helpers
do.

Thanks for reviewing. I'll send a v2 with an updated commit message and
switch to the new API in a new follow-on patch.
