OK, so you then write 1 to the sysfs to assert reset, right? And in your
patch you change the mode to input effectively deasserting the reset.

Why not simply do following instead of unexport?

# echo 0 > /sys/class/gpio/gpioXX/value

or even

# echo 0 > /sys/class/gpio/gpioXX/value
# echo in > /sys/class/gpio/gpioXX/direction

Am I missing something?
