The fields in the override structure are meant for convenience. The extra_priv_size field is the most important one; the other two fields (reset and port_power) are present only because so many drivers need them. There's no reason to add an extra field for something that will be used in only one driver. You can do the override by hand, instead of wasting space in a whole bunch of other drivers.
