Hi Tim:
Thanks for your timely reminder. I just was puzzled a while why only Gen1 is
 linked up on i.MX8MP.
Root cause is that I forget merge some local changes to the up-stream codes.
BTW, the local codes supports the Gen3 link on i.MX8MP A1 chip or later.
Since the A0 chip PCIe only supports up to Gen2 link speed.

Richard Zhu
