        Hi Philipp, Mike, Stephen, Simon, Magnus,
      (see questions *** below!)

Currently the R-Car Clock Pulse Generator (CPG) drivers obtains the
state of the mode pins either by a call from the platform code, or
directly by using a hardcoded register access. This is a bit messy, and
creates a dependency between driver and platform code.

This patch series converts the various Renesas R-Car clock drivers
and support code from reading the mode pin states using a hardcoded
register access to using a new minimalistic R-Car RST driver.

  - Philip: While this is a driver for a reset-controller, currently it
    doesn't provide any reset-controller functionality. Hence I added it
    to drivers/soc/renesas/. Is that OK for you?
Absolutely, as long as the driver isn't even a reset controller
provider, this is the right place.
Thank you!

Gr{oetje,eeting}s,
