It's not clear to me where the relevant events are for these chips.

Do you have access to the PCIe CEM spec?  The diagram in r6.0, sec
2.2.1, is helpful.  It shows the required timings for Power Stable,
REFCLK Stable, PERST# deassert, etc.

Per sec 2.11.2, PERST# must be asserted for at least 100us (T_PERST),
PERST# must be asserted for at least 100ms after Power Stable
(T_PVPERL), and PERST# must be asserted for at least 100us after
REFCLK Stable.

It would be helpful if we could tell by reading the source where some
of these critical events happen, and that the relevant delays are
there.  For example, if PERST# is asserted/deasserted by
"clk_enable()" or similar, it's not at all obvious from the code, so
we should have a comment to that effect.
