RST only supports 1 channel, but its value is 4, so here I extend to 4 channel
for RST in code, to make the calculation a bit easier to get TXDB_V2 channel
pointer. But from user side, nothing changed

IMX_MU_TYPE_RST         = 4, /* Reset */
IMX_MU_TYPE_TXDB_V2     = 5, /* Tx doorbell with S/W ACK */

It does not make much sense to separate this change, because this change
Would only make sense together with TXDB_V2 changes.

Thanks,
Peng.
