Yes, plda,xpressrich-pcie-host is IP controller driver. Do it like designware/cadence/mobiveil, (pcie-(ip)-plat.c)
But I can't test it. I don't whether need it. If it not required, I will delete it.

I am sorry, The driver need stg clk and syscon driver, which are have't be merge to main line.
mainly dts is(patch9) rejected, Must apply this series patch first. (I forget add this link in cover letter)
