This provides reset driver support for the Microchip Sparx5 PCB134
and
PCB135 reference boards.
This isn't a compatible change. You need an explanation why that's
okay
if that's intended.
I am not entirely sure that I get your point.

The change (adding the reset driver) is new, and it is optional (but
strongly recommended) for the  clients to use it, so will this be a
incompatible change?
I'm assuming something used "microchip,sparx5-chip-reset"?
I can certainly add a an explanation.  Would that be needed here in the
bindings, or where do you suggest?
Just need to spell out why dropping that is okay in the commit msg.
But I guess what this looks like will change anyways.

Rob
