RE: [PATCH v2 2/2] reset: Reset controller driver for Intel LGM SoC

Hi Dilip,
Add driver for the reset controller present on Intel
Lightening Mountain (LGM) SoC for performing reset
management of the devices present on the SoC. Driver also
registers a reset handler to peform the entire device reset.
[...]
+static const struct of_device_id intel_reset_match[] = {
+	{ .compatible = "intel,rcu-lgm" },
+	{}
+};
how is this IP block differnet from the one used in many Lantiq SoCs?
there is already an upstream driver for the RCU IP block on the Lantiq
SoCs: drivers/reset/reset-lantiq.c

some background:
Lantiq was started as a spinoff from Infineon in 2009. Intel then
acquired Lantiq in 2015. source: [0]
Intel is re-using some of the IP blocks from the MIPS Lantiq SoCs
(Intel even has some own MIPS SoCs as part of the Lantiq acquisition,
typically used for PON/GPON/ADSL/VDSL capable network devices).
Thus I think it is likely that the new "Lightening Mountain" SoCs use
an updated version of the Lantiq RCU IP.
