Adding DT properties that need to be maintained for compatibility reasons
is a bad idea and very good reason to delay merging unfinished stuff.
And meanwhile it turned out it is not power-gpio :)

Thanks a lot! So now it is clear that gpio is connected to codec's nRESET pin,
therefore "reset-gpios" property seems reasonable here.
