Yeah I guess that would solve the single-gpio/multiple-users issue. But besides abusing one of the regulators for the job, that would also make it hard to respect the power sequence of the sensor. I think I would be happier with a dedicated GPIO reset driver that consumes a single GPIO and provides as many GPIOs as needed with a behavior similar to a reset controller: go out of reset as soon as one of the provided GPIOs requests it and get back to reset as soon as all the provided GPIOs need reset. It's a bit weird but maybe that's legit enough to make its way upstream.
