I think you are saying a change should be made like this:
diff --git a/drivers/pci/controller/dwc/pcie-designware.c

                                platform_get_resource_byname(pdev,
IORESOURCE_MEM, "atu");
-                       if (res)
+                       if (res) {
                                pci->atu_size = resource_size(res);
-                       pci->atu_base = devm_ioremap_resource(dev, res);
-                       if (IS_ERR(pci->atu_base))

                                pci->atu_base = pci->dbi_base +
DEFAULT_DBI_ATU_OFFSET;
                }

so that it looks like this:
                if (!pci->atu_base) {
                        struct resource *res =
                                platform_get_resource_byname(pdev,
IORESOURCE_MEM, "atu");
                        if (res) {
                                pci->atu_size = resource_size(res);
                                pci->atu_base = devm_ioremap_resource(dev, res);
                        }
                        if (!pci->atu_base || IS_ERR(pci->atu_base))
                                pci->atu_base = pci->dbi_base +
DEFAULT_DBI_ATU_OFFSET;
                }

Right?

The way I understand it is CLKREQ# allows the host to disable the
REFCLK when not needed for power savings so it would seem optional to
implement that and if not implemented should be left unconnected on
the card.

Sorry, I don't understand what you are saying here. Is there a change
you are going to make to v4 that will make this work for the evk and
my boards? What is that change exactly?

I responded to your "phy: freescale: pcie: initialize the imx8 pcie
standalone phy driver" submission as I don't understand the GPR14 bit
documentation from the IMX8MMRM.

Best regards,

Tim
