We could go with Sebastian's suggestion to define a 1MB range for "atu", see:
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/pci/snps%2Cdw-pcie.yaml#L76-L85

Which would allow the driver to probe if the eDMA is there or not
(even if this is strictly bigger than the real ATU_CAP size, the size is still
within the PCIe core's register map).

That would solve the problem that some pcie controllers, with the exact same
compatible, has a "dma" range while others do not.
(All controllers would have a 1MB atu range, and none of them would have the
dma range specified.)

However, we would still have the problem that for the exact same compatible,
some controllers have eDMA irqs specified in interrupts, and some do not...

But perhaps having mandatory atu range (and no dma range) + optional dma irqs
is better than mandatory atu range + optional dma range + optional dma irqs?
(At least from a DT schema maintainability PoV.)


Kind regards,
Niklas
