+NVIDIA Tegra PCIe controller

+Required properties:
+- compatible: "nvidia,tegra20-pcie"
+- reg: physical base address and length of the controller's registers
+- interrupts: the interrupt outputs of the controller
+
+Optional properties:
+- pex-clk-supply: supply voltage for internal reference clock
+- vdd-supply: power supply for controller (1.05V)

Mark, Liam,

Should those *-supply properties really be optional? I got the
impression talking to Mark in a different thread that all regulators
should exist, although their implementation may be via a fixed
regulator, with no GPIO, as determined by the board design.

If I read the TrimSlice code correctly, there is no regulator setup required
to make PCIe work there presumably because they hardwire the proper voltages.
On the other hand, maybe a better solution in this case would be to use the
dummy regulator in those cases.
