Hi Wolfram,

Thanks for your patch!

IMHO it can be part of the real board DTS, for the following reasons:
  1. SATA is multiplexed with PCIE1, but the SATA connector is on-board,
     while using PCIE1 requires plugging in an extension board in EXIO
     Connector A.
  2. PCIE1 is the default, for both MD12 and the PCIE-SATA switch, but I
     assume that is only the case because Salvator-XS supports all of R-Car
     H3 ES2, M3-W, and M3-N, while M3-W does not have SATA.

Note that for the GPIO hog to survive s2ram, the pca9654 driver needs to
be enhanced to restore its configuration after system resume.

Please insert this node just before &pfc, to preserve sort order.

Perhaps add a comment saying MD12 must be 1 (SW12-7 must be off)?
