I doubt that. Have you confirmed it with testing? When you install
module cpu-tegra, the pcie initialization has been done, right?

Before we head to a solution, we need to identify the cause.
One thing I note is there is no loops_per_jiffy updating in cpu-tegra
driver. But if I understand correctly, the driver is running on
MP system. It should update loops_per_jiffy when cpu frequency
changes, right? I'm worrying about that the timeout in tegra pcie
driver just happens to work with a wrong loops_per_jiffy, but becomes
broken when loops_per_jiffy gets correct.
