Dear Bjorn,

Sorry for the late response and thanks for your comment.

Yes. This delay was defined for a downstream device (e.g., a PCIe EP)
which need an extra reset pin, not for Mediatek's PCIe controller
itself. I suppose we need to add a property in devicetree to let user
determine the delay time due to differences in requirements between
various devices.
