Hi Rob,

Thanks for the response! I agree using a separate alloc sounds best. I went
ahead and verified this works on my end without any issues and pushed [1]. I
believe the memory leak should be fixed by allocating within
dw_pcie_host_init() since that should only be called in the PCIe probe path and
not suspend/resume.

Please take a look.

Thanks,
Will
