[Macchiato] EDKII grub boot fails with PCIe init

Hi Frederik,

In the SD image you sent, grub did not work:
error: no such partition.
Entering rescue mode...
grub rescue>

I saw no kernel/dtb images as well (neither in
ubuntu-18.04-kernel-4.16-efi.img, nor in
mcbin-sdcard-with-root-mmcblk1p3.img). Anyway, I think I solved the
problem. From UEFI, please add 'clk_ignore_unused' to the commandline
during boot.

I noticed some strange regression in the mainline kernel - it resulted in
stalls (4.17-rc1 with UEFI dtb and 17-rc1 original dtb, also same behavior
when booting from u-boot). Using your UEFI image (booting from SD card
mcbin-sdcard-with-root-mmcblk1p3.img) I was able to boot my original debian
buster and also some v4.15-rc8 kernel to your ubuntu. However mainline
4.17-rc1 go stalls during mount (with and without PCIE plugged). Today I
noticed some problems with XHCI clock patches in the mainline, so it's
probably a root cause. Anyway  'clk_ignore_unused' helped, so please try
and let know.

FYI, my x4 GT630 PCIE card was always detected with link up and your UEFI
image.

Best regards,
Marcin
