We normally reset PAXB in the firmware(ATF). But for cases like kexec
kernel boot,
we do not execute any firmware code and directly boot into kernel.
We could have done PAXB reset in the driver itself as you have suggested here.
But note that this detail could vary for each SoC, because these
registers are not part
of PAXB register space itself, rather exists in a register space responsible for
controlling power to various wrappers in PCIe IP. Normally, this kind
of SoC specific
details are handled in firmware itself, we don't bring them to driver level.

No, ep_is_internal is indicator for PAXC IP. It does not have
mappings as in PAXB.
