Different to RK3588-Tiger, on RK3588-Jaguar the signal enabling the
PCIe-refclk generator controls a transistor which in turn controls the
output-enable input of the PI6C557 and there's no external Pull-Up or
Pull-Down between the SoC and the transistor gate.

On Tiger the pin is directly connected to the PDn input which has an
internal pull up.

So match that behaviour on Jaguar by changing the pin config to enable
the SoC's pull-up config.


I think we've a different behavior on Jaguar and Tiger (see polarity of enable-gpios), so this is a bit misleading. I would simply say this matches the default PU/PD pinconf of the SoC after reset according to the TRM. It also means we keep the clock generator in reset until the device driver drives the enable pin. On Tiger, since we would need a pull-down to have it disabled by default, but that it's only an internal pull-down on RK3588-side and a pull-up on the clock generator IC-side, I don't know if that would work and reliably at that if we were to have opposite internal pull-up/down resistors on each side of the line, hence the no PU/PD on RK3588 side.
