This surprisingly works without moving cpu_reset() to a specific_ss

I don't understand the question. Why wouldn't it work? :)

Heh probably something I forgot or do not understand around the specific_ss /
common_ss distinction.
I was under the (wrong?) impression that we build some tools or components that
include common_ss objects, but not specific_ss.
And maybe I am just wrong, and things are simpler than I expected.
No, all emulators include:
- some parts of common_ss, compiled once per build. These are files
that do not use target-specific definitions. Other sourcesets also
define once-per-build files, and in fact they end up in common_ss via
the add_all method of sourcesets; softmmu_ss, for example is added to
common_ss under the CONFIG_SOFTMMU condition.
- some parts of specific_ss, compiled once per target because these
files use target-specific definitions.
- the entirety of the respective hw/ and target/ sourcesets.
It is possible to include calls from one sourceset to another (including
from common to specific) as long as the conditions ensure that the
symbol is defined.
