I think NXP is in a better position to adjust the patch w.r.t actual PCIe clock. I just
want to known, for now, what PCIe clock is for T1042 and P2010, CCB or CCB/2, so we can set
the correct value and continue with our trouble shooting.

T1040RM actually has this writing in 28.11.19:
The PCI Express controller clock frequency is one-half the platform clock frequency.
....
That indicates the PCIe clock is CCB/2. P2010 does not have that text. 
Please advice.
