Playing devil's advocate for a bit:

More specifically, currently the following per-controller bits need to
be configured:

- Location of the "device type" field within GPR12
- GPR register to use to control PCIn_CLKREQ_B_OVERRIDE_EN and
PCIn_CLKREQ_B_OVERRIDE_EN (GPR14 vs GPR16)
- Now that Philip spoke against PCIE_CTRL_APPS_CLK_REQ being exposed
via reset controller driver, we need to know which SRC register to use
to control that bit (SRC_PCIEPHY_RCR vs. SRC_PCIE2_RCR)
