FWIW this patch would mean we would try to call dc->reset on
the ARM CPU devices; the only reason this doesn't cause a
problem is that those devices don't happen to register a
dc->reset function pointer. (It's this sort of "now we start
calling a reset method on a device that was probably doing its
own reset via another path" that meant I wasn't too keen on it
for 2.4, though quite possibly it would work out better than
the ad-hoc reset we have currently in the longer term...)
