Thanks for the feedback.
In v1 of this patch, Tom requested that the option be enabled by default 
in Kconfig so that existing behavior on other platforms would not be 
affected [1]. Based on that guidance, in v2 enabled the new config by 
default in Kconfig and explicitly disabled it for Qualcomm in 
|qcom_defconfig|.

Regarding validation on sdm845: I currently don’t have access to sdm845 
hardware, so I’m unable to test it directly. From the nature of the 
change, it shouldn’t impact older Qualcomm platforms, as the reset path 
is typically managed by the OS/bootloader independently.

I will address the remaining comments and respin the patch.
