Using a smaller type complicates the DT for little to no benefit. I
think it's ok to use u32 here, which is a common standard for integer
values in DT.

Though this discussion lead me to the question if we even need to have
this property in the DT at all. Isn't this a property that is fixed for
a specific silicon implementation of the DW core? In that case we could
just infer the number of ATUs from the DT compatible, so this should
probably just be added to struct pcie_port and properly initialized by
the SoC glue drivers.
