The existing commit message could be replaced by the following:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
commit 23284ad677a9 ("PCI: keystone: Add support for PCIe EP in AM654x
Platforms") introduced configuring "enum dw_pcie_device_mode" as part of
device data ("struct ks_pcie_of_data"). However it failed to set the mode
for "ti,keystone-pcie" compatible.

Since the mode defaults to "DW_PCIE_UNKNOWN_TYPE", the following error
message is displayed:
	"INVALID device type 0"
for the v3.65a controller. Despite the driver probing successfully, the
controller may not be functional in the Root Complex mode of operation.

So, set the mode as Root Complex for "ti,keystone-pcie" compatible to fix
this.
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Regards,
Siddharth.
