The "xhci-reset-on-resume" isn't a documented DT property. It's set here
for match data just to immediately read back by the same driver. Can we
add a field to dwc3_properties and pass it through the probe data
instead (similar to how dwc3_generic_plat.c handles it)? This avoids
handling the software_node lifecycle just to pass the quirk.
