On TI's J7 SOCs, PCIe is composed of PCIe core from Cadence and TI 
wrapper. It is desired to have J7 PCIe working on upstream kernel by 
default. So to enable this I have pushed these defconfig changes.

BTW, I am planning to hold this change until PCIe code changes (rest of 
the patches in this series) gets merged.

Please let me know if there are more concern to this.
Sorry, for this time.

Thanks,
