Are you sure that's supported? This is a slot intended only for LTE
modems, isn't it?
Looking at the picture at https://i.mt.lv/cdn/rb_images/884_hi_res.png I
can't see anything connecting to the PETn0/PETp0 pair. There are
connections to the PERn0/PERp0 pair, but the traces do not look like
they're laid out for a PCIe differential pair. I suspect that's made for
some specific modem, using those pins for a debug UART. Like the Quectel
EC25:

Hi Bjørn
I can confirm the slot can also handle pcie signaling.
Got a rb912 board laying on my desk this very moment running an extra
ath9k pcie card :-) (openwrt 19.07)
The slot is also advertised by MikroTik that it can do that.
Here is a part of a rb912 bootlog, running in the field:
