Could we perhaps have a helper function that lets us register
fixups dynamically?

The linker script keeps all pci fixup callbacks in pci fixup regions
during kernel compile time. So, it needs to be builtin module. Do you
know any way we can update those fixup regions?
The only method I'm aware of at the moment is move the fixups to
drivers/pci/quirks.c and enclose them in an #ifdef if you want them
to not appear in kernels that don't support your SoC.
By looking at the drivers/pci/quirks.c, it looks like it is mainly for
the pci endpoint devices.
Fixups for host controller are in the driver itself.
But if it's for the host itself, there are usually other ways to
do this without needing a fixup: you already have the device structure
present in the driver, so you should just be able to modify it there.
Thanks for your suggestion. You are right, I have tested this can work as well.
So, I can remove those 2 PCI_FIXUP* in the driver.

I'm looking at the code in your fixups now:

+static void altera_pcie_retrain(struct pci_dev *dev)
+{
+       u16 linkcap, linkstat;
+
+       /*
+        * Set the retrain bit if the PCIe rootport support > 2.5GB/s, but
+        * current speed is 2.5 GB/s.
+        */
+       pcie_capability_read_word(dev, PCI_EXP_LNKCAP, &linkcap);
+
+       if ((linkcap & PCI_EXP_LNKCAP_SLS) <= PCI_EXP_LNKCAP_SLS_2_5GB)
+               return;
+
+       pcie_capability_read_word(dev, PCI_EXP_LNKSTA, &linkstat);
+       if ((linkstat & PCI_EXP_LNKSTA_CLS) == PCI_EXP_LNKSTA_CLS_2_5GB)
+               pcie_capability_set_word(dev, PCI_EXP_LNKCTL,
+                                        PCI_EXP_LNKCTL_RL);
+}
+DECLARE_PCI_FIXUP_EARLY(PCI_VENDOR_ID_ALTERA, PCI_ANY_ID, altera_pcie_retrain);

This looks related to the code in pci_set_bus_speed(). What is
missing from that code?
This fixup is different from pci_set_bus_speed(). This fixup is to set
the retrain bit in the LNKCTL register if the host can support higher
speed than current speed, this is required by our hardware. But,
pci_set_bus_speed() is just read the LNKCAP and LNKSTA registers and
store in data structure.
+static void altera_pcie_fixup_res(struct pci_dev *dev)
+{
+       /*
+        * Prevent enumeration of root port.
+        */
+       if (!dev->bus->parent && dev->devfn == 0) {
+               int i;
+
+               for (i = 0; i < PCI_NUM_RESOURCES; i++) {
+                       dev->resource[i].start = 0;
+                       dev->resource[i].end   = 0;
+                       dev->resource[i].flags   = 0;
+               }
+       }
+}
+DECLARE_PCI_FIXUP_HEADER(PCI_VENDOR_ID_ALTERA, PCI_ANY_ID,
+                        altera_pcie_fixup_res);

This seems really odd, too. Why is this needed?
I think I've seen similar code in other host drivers, so
it might be time to teach the PCI core about this kind of
device.
Yes, some host drivers have similar code as well. Some host controller
have the BAR configuration enabled, but it doesn't fit to kernel
resources. Example the BAR is 64-bit, but the processor is 32-bit. It
will fail at the host driver probing stage.

pci 0000:00:00.0: BAR 0: [mem 0x00000000-0xffffffff 64bit pref] has
bogus alignment
