Hi Siddharth,

No, we changed to use the internal reference clocks on the current
hardware revision (sent upstream on [1]) and still have the same issue.
Please look at the PCIe nodes in [1] so you can confirm this. For
example:

//file k3-am69-aquila.dtsi
/* Aquila PCIE_1 */
&pcie0_rc {
	pinctrl-names = "default";
	pinctrl-0 = <&pinctrl_pcie0_reset>;
	clocks = <&k3_clks 332 0>, <&serdes1 CDNS_TORRENT_REFCLK_DRIVER>;
	clock-names = "fck", "pcie_refclk";
	num-lanes = <2>;
	phy-names = "pcie-phy";
	phys = <&serdes1_pcie0_2l_link>;
	reset-gpios = <&main_gpio0 32 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
	ti,syscon-acspcie-proxy-ctrl = <&acspcie1_proxy_ctrl 0x3>;
	status = "disabled";
};
