This looks a little excessive, I'm holding off on this pull request
for now, as I'm
not sure exactly what the downsides are.

I see that your dtsi file has

+ aliases {
+ serial0 = &wkup_uart0;
+ serial1 = &mcu_uart0;
+ serial2 = &main_uart0;
+ serial3 = &main_uart1;
+ serial4 = &main_uart2;
+ serial5 = &main_uart3;
+ serial6 = &main_uart4;
+ serial7 = &main_uart5;
+ serial8 = &main_uart6;
+ serial9 = &main_uart7;
+ serial10 = &main_uart8;
+ serial11 = &main_uart9;
+ mmc0 = &main_sdhci0;
+ mmc1 = &main_sdhci1;
+ can0 = &main_mcan16;
+ can1 = &mcu_mcan0;
+ can2 = &mcu_mcan1;
+ can3 = &main_mcan3;
+ can4 = &main_mcan5;
+ };

which I think is the underlying problem here. The aliases are really meant to
be board specific, and I would assume that none of the boards actually
uses all the
uart and can bus devices, usually this isn't even possible due to pinctrl
constraints, so please follow up by moving these to the .dts files listing only
the actually used devices instead of working around it in the defconfig.

I see the PCIe driver is built-in here. Is that necessary for booting?
If not, please
make it a loadable module.
