The reg space is 4KB, but only 0x28 are used. I think 0x1000 or 0x28 are fine
since the ioremap granule is 4kB.

But the functionality of this "autoclear" reg isn't used at all since we also
have "sticky" reset to acchieve the same feature, I.E reset cpusys. And in the
usage case of reseting cpusys, I believe "sticky" reset is preferred.

And except the cpusys reset which has both autoclear and sticky, other
resets are sticky only. I'm not sure whether it's worth to write a new
driver for almost useless feature.
