Right, but there are potentially two access controllers here. You need
to describe which is which, so that people can hook them up in the
correct order. In what case are there two? Your dts patch only has one.

If "syscon_regmap_lookup_by_phandle()" is not a lookup, then I do not
know what is. An example justification for it would be that there are
multiple combophys on the same soc, each using a different sysconf
region. Your dts suggests that is not the case though, since you have
st,syscfg = <&syscfg>; in it, rather than st,syscfg = <&syscfg0>;.

Ah, so not really a "common clock" linuxism at all.

How is someone supposed to decide between on and off? Is it always on
for PCIe, or only on in some configurations? Or maybe only (or always?) on
if the pad clock is provided?
