The broadcom_bus.c quirk was written (without benefit of documentation)
to support PCI hotplug on an old system that doesn't have ACPI. As
such, we should only use it when the system doesn't have ACPI.
If the system does have ACPI and we need the host bridge description, we
should get it from the ACPI _CRS method. On machines older than 2008,
we currently ignore _CRS, but that doesn't mean we should use
broadcom_bus.c. It means we should either (a) do what we've done in the
past and assume everything in the PCI gap is routed to bus 0 (so hotplug
may not work), or (b) arrange to use _CRS. This patch does (a).

Read the memory ranges behind the Broadcom CNB20LE host bridge out of the
hardware. This allows PCI hotplugging to work, since we know which memory
range to allocate PCI BAR's from.
The x86 PCI code automatically prefers the ACPI _CRS information when it is
available. In that case, this information is not used.
