just fwiw, I had noticed before that (at least on the
beaglebone-black), nxp doesn't necessarily get reset when doing a warm
reboot.  So booting a kernel w/ NXP driver, and then rebooting w/
upstream kernel and tda998x should probably hit this same scenario.
Better to not assume too much about the state of the tda when the
driver is loaded, so I think this patch is a good idea.
