[PATCH v3 1/2] PCI: Add device flag PCI_DEV_FLAGS_BRIDGE_XLATE_ROOT

From: Jayachandran C <jchandra at broadcom.com>

Add a new quirk flag PCI_DEV_FLAGS_BRIDGE_XLATE_ROOT to limit the DMA
alias search to go no further than the bridge where the IOMMU unit is
attached.

The flag will be used to indicate a bridge device which forwards the
address translation requests to the IOMMU, i.e where the interrupt and
DMA requests leave the PCIe hierarchy and go into the system blocks.

Usually this happens at the PCI RC, so this flag is not needed. But
on systems where there are bridges that introduce aliases above the
"real" root bridge, this flag is needed to ensure that the function
pci_for_each_dma_alias() works correctly.

The function pci_for_each_dma_alias() is updated to stop when it see a
bridge with this flag set.
