The reset_gpio is optional, so in j721e_pcie_suspend_noirq() check if it is
not NULL before to use it.
If you have occasion to post a v2, update subject to:
PCI: j721e: Check reset_gpio for NULL before using it
s/before to use it/before using it/
Did you trip over a NULL pointer dereference here? Or maybe found via
inspection?
By inspection

It looks like gpiod_set_value_cansleep(desc) *should* be a no-op if
desc is NULL, based on this comment [1]:
* This descriptor validation needs to be inserted verbatim into each
* function taking a descriptor, so we need to use a preprocessor
* macro to avoid endless duplication. If the desc is NULL it is an
* optional GPIO and calls should just bail out.
and the fact that the VALIDATE_DESC_VOID() macro looks like it would
return early in that case.

Oh yes you're right.
In fact, the if statement in probe() and resume_noirq() is for msleep(),
not really for gpiod_set_value_cansleep().
So this patch is useless.
Yes. Almost all of the GPIO APIs accepting desc (except few) use VALIDATE_DESC()
to check for NULL descriptor. So explicit check is not needed.
