documentation when it pops into existence).

+RESET returns the ITS to the same state that it was when first created and
+initialized. When the RESET command returns, the following things are
+guaranteed:
+
+- The ITS is not enabled and quiescent
+ GITS_CTLR.Enabled = 0 .Quiescent=1
+- There is no internally cached state
+- No collection or device table are used
+ GITS_BASER<n>.Valid = 0
+- GITS_CBASER = 0, GITS_CREADR = 0, GITS_CWRITER = 0
+- The ABI version is unchanged and remains the one set when the ITS
+ device was first created.
