The reset framework doesn't define its functions when its not
selected, and somehow I think it was not here. What's odd is that
there is an explicit select on RESET_CONTROLLER in the Kconfig. Maybe
it's the circular dependency issue that has been reported that cause
this and Wolfram sent a patch for: http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/327573/
