The clk framework will deassert reset when a clock is enabled, but it
cannot assert reset when a clock is disabled because some blocks need
to turn of clocks when the block is not in use without reinitializing
the whole block for the next transaction. If a driver wants to reset
the block, it must call tegra_periph_assert_reset. Most drivers have
no need to manually reset the block, and do not use these apis at all.

These apis set registers internal to Tegra, they have no use for
drivers for external devices.
