I tend to disagree here (but perhaps you'll have other arguments to
convince me otherwise): the GPIO used for PCIe reset is a completely
board-specific thing. You can chose whatever GPIO you want, and each
board can be different. Therefore, there is no reason to have such a
pinmux configuration at the SoC level (.dtsi), it should be within the
particular board that uses that pinmux configuration.

This is a rule that we have applied to mvebu platforms in general, and
which I believe is fairly common in many DTs.

Best regards,

Thomas
