OK. I took some time to understand in which handler the IRQ call had
to go, so I think to documentation is not clear enough:

 * @phases.hold: This phase is called for entry into reset, once every
object
 * in the system which is being reset has had its @phases.enter method
called.
 * At this point devices can do actions that affect other objects.
 *
 * @phases.exit: This phase is called when the object leaves the reset
state.
 * Actions affecting other objects are permitted.

Do you mind sending a patch to clarify? Personally I find listing what
can be done where easier to understand (explicit list) rather than
being generic and letting the developer choose.
