Dear Krzysztof,

Sorry for the late response and thanks for your comment.

The "dsc-reset-gpios" represents an extra reset pin other than PERST#
required by a PCIe downstream device. But the "reset-gpios", described
in "pci.txt", represents the PERST#. So I tend to add a new property to
meet this requirement.

Thanks for the correction. I will modify it in v2 patch.

Same as the reason I described above. I suppose we need to add a
property to let user determine the delay time due to differences
in requirements between various devices.

Seems unnecessary to add a "maxItems" here. Also I will remove it in v2
patch. Thanks a lot.
