For me personally, the patch I care most about is the first of Claudius
and my series ("ARM: reset: use do_reset in SPL/TPL if SYSRESET was not
enabled for them") [1].  It is necessary to make SPL_USB_SDP_SUPPORT work
on the DH imx6 board (which does not use SYSRESET in SPL at the moment).

As this patch breaks the imx8m* boards in their present form, we tried
fixing them in their current non-DM state in "imx: imx8m*: Remove do_reset
from board files" [2] and "imx: imx8m: Don't use the addr parameter of
reset_cpu" [3].  These patches are theoretically superseeded by your
series which solves the problem much better and more future-proof.
But I think it would not hurt to pull in Claudius and my changes as well
so the non-DM version isn't lying around, silently broken.

Additionally, "imx: imx8m: Don't use the addr parameter of reset_cpu" [3]
is groundwork for removing this addr parameter altogether from the whole
tree which I want to do after this imx8 story is over.

So to summarize, the final state I'd want is this:

    - "ARM: reset: use do_reset in SPL/TPL if SYSRESET was not enabled for
      them" is applied for my own needs.
    - No board defines do_reset().
    - The imx8m boards use DM_SYSRESET in SPL (from your patches).
    - The non-DM reset code for imx8 is also fixed, even though it is not
      used in any mainline board anymore.
