Hi; I've applied this series to target-arm.next (seems the easiest way
to take it into the tree). I'm not super happy about the need to
use qemu_register_reset(), but (as we discussed on irc) the amount
of refactoring of the Rom blob code to do it some other way would
be disproportionate, and this is no worse than some of the other
implicit reset-order requirements we have already. (I may come back
some day and see if there's a refactoring I like if I need to do
some reset cleanup in future.)

PS: if you could remember to send cover letters for multipatch
patchsets, that helps our automated tooling. (I think this is
why the series didn't show up in patchew, for instance.)

thanks
