I tried to review the series (see my other replies), but I am not sure
I fully understand the consumer part.
More exactly, when and who is going to pull the reset and at what point?

Okay, so it's indeed the GPU driver that is going to assert/de-assert
the reset at some point. Right?
That seems like a reasonable approach to me, even if it's a bit
unclear under what conditions that could happen.
