Unlike Linux on x86, which typically honors the PCI configuration performed
by the firmware, Linux on ARM assumes that the PCI subsystem needs to be
configured from scratch. This is not entirely unreasonable given the
historical background of embedded systems using very basic bootloaders,
but is no longer tenable with Linux on arm64 moving to UEFI and ACPI in the
server space. For this reason, PCI support in the arm64 kernel running under
ACPI is likely to move to the x86 model of honoring the PCI configuration
done by the firmware.

So let's align with that in our DT based configuration as well, and set the
/chosen/linux,pci-probe-only property to 1 in the Device Tree before we
hand it to the OS.

In case we are exposing an emulated VGA PCI device to the guest, which may
subsequently get exposed via the Graphics Output protocol and driven as an
efifb by the OS, this ensures the PCI resource allocations for the framebuffer
are not overridden, since that would cause the framebuffer to stop working.

Any particular reason to remove this empty line? I think it should be kept.

Another nit (sorry I did notice this in v1, but ultimately forgot to
mention it): please add a "\n" at the end of the warning.

Please fix these up before you commit the patch.
