+	 * DesignWare core version 4.90A has a design issue where the 'TD'
+	 * bit in the Control register-1 of the ATU outbound region acts
+	 * like an override for the ECRC setting, i.e., the presence of TLP
+	 * Digest (ECRC) in the outgoing TLPs is solely determined by this
+	 * bit. This is contrary to the PCIe spec which says that the
+	 * enablement of the ECRC is solely determined by the AER
+	 * registers.
+	 *
+	 * Because of this, even when the ECRC is enabled through AER
+	 * registers, the transactions going through ATU won't have TLP
+	 * Digest as there is no way the PCI core AER code could program
+	 * the TD bit which is specific to the DesignWare core.
+	 *
+	 * The best way to handle this scenario is to program the TD bit
+	 * always. It affects only the traffic from root port to downstream
+	 * devices.
+	 *
+	 * At this point,
+	 * When ECRC is enabled in AER registers, everything works normally
+	 * When ECRC is NOT enabled in AER registers, then,
+	 * on Root Port:- TLP Digest (DWord size) gets appended to each packet
+	 *                even through it is not required. Since downstream
+	 *                TLPs are mostly for configuration accesses and BAR
+	 *                accesses, they are not in critical path and won't
+	 *                have much negative effect on the performance.
+	 * on End Point:- TLP Digest is received for some/all the packets coming
+	 *                from the root port. TLP Digest is ignored because,
+	 *                as per the PCIe Spec r5.0 v1.0 section 2.2.3
+	 *                "TLP Digest Rules", when an endpoint receives TLP
+	 *                Digest when its ECRC check functionality is disabled
+	 *                in AER registers, received TLP Digest is just ignored.
+	 * Since there is no issue or error reported either side, best way to
+	 * handle the scenario is to program TD bit by default.
