Thanks. Here's the relevant output with that patch:

I'm appending arch/arm/boot/dts/armada-370-mirabox.dtb to the kernel
image as the bootloader on the Mirabox is ancient and doesn't support
DTs. As far as I can see, there's no reset-gpios property anywhere in
that DT.

With regards to the bootloader, in case the information helps, it prints out:

PEX 0: Root Complex Interface, Detected Link X1
PEX 1: Root Complex Interface, Detected Link X1

As I am booting from the SD card, which is internally connected via
USB, the boot loader is obviously initialising the XHCI controller.
I'm guessing this is why it is detected immediately without needing
the delay.

Cheers,
