Re: [PATCH v2 3/3] serial: sh-sci: Add support to deassert/assert reset line

On RZ/G2L SoC we need to explicitly deassert the reset line
for the device to work, use this opportunity to deassert/assert
reset line in sh-sci driver.

This patch adds support to read the "resets" property (if available)
from DT and perform deassert/assert when required.

Also, propagate the error to the caller of sci_parse_dt() instead of
returning NULL in case of failure.

* deassert/assert reset line if available on all SoC's
* Updated commit message

Thanks for the update!

Not needed.

-       data = of_device_get_match_data(&pdev->dev);

Please keep the old construct using of_device_get_match_data().

+               return ERR_PTR(PTR_ERR(rstc));

The error might be -EPROBE_DEFER, so please use
"return ERR_PTR(dev_err_probe(...))", to avoid printing the message
in case of probe deferral.

BTW, ERR_CAST() is a shorthand for ERR_PTR(PTR_ERR()).

I gave this a try on Salvator-XS, and noticed no regressions.
I will test this on more SCIF variants later.
