A weak symbol is going to affect all arm64 platforms, which then would
need to be quirked accordingly depending on the PCIe controller being
used. This feels very cumbersome, and probably unmaintainable in the
long run.

I'd rather explore Lorenzo's option of using interrupt links to
describe this.
