Add a reset driver framework/uclass
A reset controller is a hardware module that controls reset signals that affect other hardware modules or chips. This patch defines a standard API that connects reset clients (i.e. the drivers for devices affected by reset signals) to drivers for reset controllers/providers. Initially, DT is the only supported method for connecting the two. The DT binding specification (reset.txt) was taken from Linux kernel v4.5's Documentation/devicetree/bindings/reset/reset.txt.

+/**
+ * A reset is a hardware signal indicating that a HW module (or IP block, or
+ * sometimes an entire off-CPU chip) reset all of its internal state to some
+ * known-good initial state. Drivers will often reset HW modules when they
+ * begin execution to ensure that hardware correctly responds to all requests,
+ * or in response to some error condition. Reset signals are often controlled
+ * externally to the HW module being reset, by an entity this API calls a reset
+ * controller. This API provides a standard means for drivers to request that
+ * reset controllers set or clear reset signals.
+ *
+ * A driver that implements UCLASS_RESET is a reset controller or provider. A
+ * controller will often implement multiple separate reset signals, since the
+ * hardware it manages often has this capability. reset-uclass.h describes the
+ * interface which reset controllers must implement.
+ *
+ * Reset consumers/clients are the HW modules affected by reset signals. This
+ * header file describes the API used by drivers for those HW modules.

+ * control struct is initialized by "get"ing the reset control struct. The

+ * assumption becomes invalid in the future, the struct could be expanded to
+ * either (a) add more fields to allow reset providers to store additional
+ * information, or (b) replace the id field with an opaque pointer, which the
+ * provider would dynamically allocated during its .of_xlate op, and process
+ * during is .request op. This may require the addition of an extra op to clean
