Please just return errors here instead of ignoring them.
The reset_control_get_optional variants return NULL in case the
device node doesn't contain a resets phandle, in case you really
consider this reset to be optional even though the flag is set?

It feels like we should get rid of the flag and leave it to the 
devicetree.

Do you mean adding a flag, for instance, "mmc-reset" in the
device tree and call of_property_read_bool() in aspeed_sdc_probe()?

I'm still kind of surprised it's not something we want to do for the 
2400 and 2500 as well.

Per discussion with the chip designer, AST2400 and AST2500 doesn't need
this implementation since the chip design is different to AST2600.

So digging a bit more deeply on this, it looks like the reset is 
already taken care of by drivers/clk/clk-ast2600.c in the 
clk_prepare_enable() path.

clk-ast2600 handles resets when enabling the clock for most peripherals:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/clk/clk-ast2600.c?h=v5.12#n276

and this is true for both the SD controller and the eMMC controller:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/clk/clk-ast2600.c?h=v5.12#n94
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/clk/clk-ast2600.c?h=v5.12#n88

If this weren't the case you'd specify a reset property in the SD/eMMC 
devicetree nodes for the 2600 and then use 
devm_reset_control_get_optional_exclusive() as Philipp suggested. See 
the reset binding here:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/reset/reset.txt?h=v5.12

So on the surface it seems the reset handling in this patch is 
unnecessary. Have you observed an issue with the SoC that means it's 
required?
