> PCA9450 PMIC supports reading the reset status from the PWRON_STAT
> register. Bits 7-4 give indication of the PMIC reset cause:
> 
>  - PWRON (BIT7) - Power ON triggered by PMIC_ON_REQ input line,
>  - WDOGB (BIT6) - Boot after cold reset by WDOGB pin (watchdog reset),
>  - SW_RST (BIT5) - Boot after cold reset initiated by the software,
>  - PMIC_RST (BIT4) - Boot after PMIC_RST_B input line trigger.
> 
> Add support for reading reset status via the sysreset framework in a
> convenient printable format.
