Why do we need a write-only variable?

devm_gpiod_get_optional() would be better, if only for its commenting
value.

Also, this adds a new optional property, doesn't the devicetree binding
docs need to be update to match this?

It's written to by devm_gpiod_get() below.

Yes, you're perfectly right.

Ah yes, that too. I'll add it for v3.

Yes, but it not *read* anywhere because we rely on devm to release the GPIO.
Why do we need a write-only variable?

Actually I won't ... because there is no description for tdo24m I could find.

If that's a problem for you, I'll drop that patch as well.

I think I'm ok to drop this, if only because based on current upstream
state I think this code will never be given a reset line anyway (or is
there a partner patch for mach-pxa that hasn't been posted yet).
