[PATCH V2] arm64: dts: imx8mp-evk: Disable PCIe bus in the default dts

From: Sherry Sun <hidden>
Date: 2026-03-20 09:02:34
Also in: imx, linux-arm-kernel, lkml
Subsystem: arm/freescale imx / mxc arm architecture, the rest · Maintainers: Frank Li, Sascha Hauer, Linus Torvalds

Disable the PCIe bus in the default device tree to avoid shared
regulator conflicts between SDIO and PCIe buses. The non-deterministic
probe order between these two buses can break the PCIe initialization
sequence, causing PCIe devices to fail detection intermittently.

On i.MX8MP EVK board, the M.2 connector is physically wired to both
USDHC1 and PCIe0, however the out-of-box module is SDIO IW612 WiFi, so
enable the SDIO WiFi in the default imx8mp-evk.dts, and provide a
separate device tree overlay (imx8mp-evk-pcie.dtso) to enable the PCIe
bus when needed.

Signed-off-by: Sherry Sun <redacted>

Chanegs in V2:
1. Improve the commit message to clarify SDIO WiFi is the out-of-box module on
   i.MX8MP EVK board.
