Some QCOM PCIe PHYs support no_csr reset. Unlike BCR reset which resets the
whole PHY (hardware and register), no_csr reset only resets PHY hardware
but retains register values, which means PHY setting can be skipped during
PHY init if PCIe link is enabled in booltloader and only no_csr is toggled
after that.
Hence, determine whether the PHY has been enabled in bootloader by
verifying QPHY_START_CTRL register. If it's programmed and no_csr reset is
available, skip BCR reset and PHY register setting to establish the PCIe
link with bootloader - programmed PHY settings.

It is really possible to have bootloader not programming the init sequence for
no_csr reset platforms? The comment sounds like it is possible. But I heard the
opposite.
PCIe3 on X1E80100 QCP is disabled by default in UEFI. We need to enable it
manually in UEFI shell if we want.
IIUC this will not be a concern going forward, and this is a special case
I'm wondering how many *special* cases we may have to deal with going forward.
Anyhow, I would propose to atleast throw an error and fail probe() if:
* the platform has no_csr reset AND
* bootloader has not initialized the PHY AND
* there are no init sequences in the kernel

Hmmm, regardless of whether it's a special case, we can't assume that UEFI
will enable the PHY supporting no_csr reset on all platforms. It's a bit
risky. If we make such an assumption, we also won't need to check whether
the PHY is enabled by UEFI during powering on. We just need to check
whether no_csr reset is available.
But it makes sense to check the exsitence of PHY senquence. How about
adding the check in qmp_pcie_init, if a PHY supports no_csr reset and isn't
initialized in UEFI and there is no cfg->tbls, return error and print some
error log so that the PCIe controller will fail to probe.
