Hi Michal

So the current code is:

	priv->reset_gpio = devm_gpiod_get_optional(priv->dev, "reset",
						   GPIOD_ASIS);
	if (IS_ERR(priv->reset_gpio))
		return PTR_ERR(priv->reset_gpio);

	if (priv->reset_gpio) {
		gpiod_set_value_cansleep(priv->reset_gpio, 1);
		/* The active low duration must be greater than 10 ms
		 * and checkpatch.pl wants 20 ms.
		 */
		msleep(20);
		gpiod_set_value_cansleep(priv->reset_gpio, 0);
	}

Doesn't your change make the gpiod_set_value_cansleep() pointless?

Please extend your patch to remove it, maybe extending the comment a
little.

Please also make sure what v2 Is Cc: to the qca8k Maintainers.
