You can take a look at the KMS code and port the relevant changes to UMS.

There isn't just a simple function to reset the chip, you need to reprogram the
memory controller, the display hardware, etc.
As your problem appears to be display related, I would take a look at the code
in atombios_encoders.c and atombios_crtc.c in KMS and compare it to the code in
atombios_output.c and atombios_crtc.c in the UMS tree.  Your chip is in the
PALM family and has a DCE4.1 based display block.
