Do we have a copy of this errata?
I can't seem to find it.
The write up in that commit is extremely vague.

As the tegra mailing list often points out, the device-tree describes
the hardware as it is.
As:
The rk3399 itself supports PCIe gen 2.
The board specific implementations determine if we need to limit that to gen 1.
The rk3399 should be set to 2, and any board that requires that to be
redefined should do that via an override in their device-tree.
This is similar to the gmac overrides for timing.

Do we have a list of the boards that require pulling back down to gen 1?
