Currently some SSD1306 OLED modules are sold without a reset pin (only
VCC, GND, SCK, SDA four pins).

Add support for missing reset-gpios property.

Unfortunately, a similar patch has been sent a couple of times
already:
https://www.spinics.net/lists/devicetree/msg158330.html

Why is it never merged?

It was sent 4 days ago...

And since you didn't have the right maintainers in the cc list, yours
didn't have a chance to be merged either.

There are really boards that needs this function.

Then  you can accelerate its inclusion by reviewing it.

Perhaps someone eventually adds drivers/reset/reset-gpio.c and uses
devm_get_reset_optional_exclusive() instead?
