Stephen Warren 89c1e2da78 Add a reset driver framework/uclass
A reset controller is a hardware module that controls reset signals that
affect other hardware modules or chips.

This patch defines a standard API that connects reset clients (i.e. the
drivers for devices affected by reset signals) to drivers for reset
controllers/providers. Initially, DT is the only supported method for
connecting the two.

The DT binding specification (reset.txt) was taken from Linux kernel
v4.5's Documentation/devicetree/bindings/reset/reset.txt.

Enable support for the reset controller driver class. Many hardware
modules are equipped with a reset signal, typically driven by some
reset controller hardware module within the chip. In U-Boot, reset
controller drivers allow control over these reset signals. In some
cases this API is applicable to chips outside the CPU as well,
although driving such reset isgnals using GPIOs may be more
appropriate in this case.
