Is this delay (dsc-reset-msleep) specific to a device downstream from
the MediaTek controller, not to the MediaTek controller itself?  If
so, it sounds like it should be a generic value that could be used by
other drivers, too.

How do you determine the value?  If there's some PCIe spec that
determines this, please include a citation to it.
