Is it true for all DWC host controllers ? Or there may be another
exception whereby we would be forced to disable this warning altogether
?

What does this mean ? "we are not employing any ATU outbound...", is
this the tegra driver ? And what guarantees that this warning is not
legitimate on DWC host controllers that do use the ATU outbound
translation for prefetchable windows ?

Can DWC maintainers chime in and clarify please ?

I think your patch is wrong and it is applied on top of a patch that
is wrong too, so I won't apply yours and it is likely I will revert
Alan's because it seems to solve nothing (and warn spuriously).

It is time for people who maintain DWC please to speak up because I
don't have the HW details required to make a judgment.
