Reset is SoC specific and not ARM Cortex A8 generic. Move it from generic code to OMAP3 SoC specific file.

please move this to reset.S other wise fine
Most probably your idea is that each file should only contain functionality which fits 100% (120%?) what the file name implies (?). While from general point of view this is correct, it makes no sense to create new files again and again just to follow this rule. We already created a cache.c on your request, now you request a new file reset.S for ~5 assembly lines. This new file would contain more comments (e.g. GPL header) than useful code.
So while in general case having file names reflecting more or less the functionality in these files, in this case it doesn't make sense. It doesn't make sense to pollute the source tree with a new file containing ~5 assembly lines just to make your rules apply. For such small code, re-using existing file is the better way to go. So NACK in this case.
Best regards
Dirk
