Yes, and also mpfs_reset_read() and friends. We should pass the base
iomem pointer and parent device to mpfs_reset_adev_alloc() instead and
then move all that code into drivers/reset with some header file
exported function to call. That way the clk driver hands over the data
without having to implement half the implementation.
