This series updates syscon-reboot to support warm/soft and cold/hard
reboot on gs101-based boards (Google Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro).
Linux supports a couple different reboot modes, but syscon-reboot
doesn't distinguish between them and issues the same syscon register
write irrespective of the reboot mode requested by the kernel.
This is a problem when platforms want to do a cold reboot most of the
time, which could e.g. wipe RAM etc, but also want to support rebooting
while keeping RAM contents in certain cases.
On gs101, this can be implemented using different syscon register
writes.
As Rob pointed out in [1], register access shouldn't be encoded into
DT, though. At the same time, at least on gs101, the difference is just
different register values in different registers. Therefore these
patches:
* add a new compatible for gs101 reset. In [2], Krzysztof suggested
to simply add that to the existing generic binding
* update the generic syscon reset driver to support this new
compatible 'google,gs101-reboot'. In this case, and as suggested
in [1], the syscon writes are then deducted from the compatible,
rather than parsing them from DT.
The existing generic syscon-reboot driver seems like a suitable place
to add support for that, given all of this is straight forward and
simple and similar to the existing code. If the preference is to have a
separate driver copying much of the existing generic syscon-reboot
driver code instead, please let me know.

Changes in v5:
- Krzysztof:
- drop gs101-specific schema and add the new compatible to the
generic syscon-reboot schema, with all appropriate follow-up
changes to it
- reuse existing syscon-reboot node for gs101 in exynos-pmu schema,
don't introduce a new one
- Link to v4: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250328-syscon-reboot-reset-mode-v4-0-77ba57703ace@xxxxxxxxxx
Changes in v4:
- Rob:
- don't add more properties to existing 'syscon-reboot' compatible /
binding
- add specific binding for 'google,gs101-reboot' compatible and
related driver changes
- Link to v3: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250227-syscon-reboot-reset-mode-v3-0-959ac53c338a@xxxxxxxxxx
Changes in v3:
- support <reset-mode>-reg in driver, not just in binding, doh...
- correctly parse <reset-mode>-offset
