I did consider adding `select RESET_GPIO` (or maybe just `imply 
RESET_GPIO`) initially but decided on the fallback as a way of avoiding 
surprises for existing users. I'll see if anyone else has a different 
suggestion but assuming nothing else changes I'll work with Krzystof to 
get an updated patch for this series.
