Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Expose reset reason through sysfs

Hello,

Back in 2019, my colleague Kamel did try to upstream a small change in the at91 reset driver, in order to expose the reset reason through sysfs instead of expecting userland to grep through dmesg to get it. There was basically no strong reason opposed to it, besides minor changes which needed fixing. 4 years ago I am seeing again the need for such exposure, so here is Kamel's patch with the minor comments addressed, as well as a small cleanup just before.

Cheers,
Miquèl

Changes in v2:
* Collected Nicolas' Acked-by
* Dropped the Xtal frequency information (as this may change between
  platforms of course).

  power: reset: at91-reset: add sysfs interface to the power on reason

  power: reset: at91-reset: use driver structure as status parameter
