Thanks for leveraging the existing "preserve_config" support for the
ACPI _DSM.  Is pci_host_common_probe() the best place for this?  I
think there are many DT platform drivers that do not use
pci_host_common_probe(), so I wonder if there's a more generic place
to put this.

I see Rob's concern about adding "preserve-boot-config" vs extending
"linux,pci-probe-only" and I don't really have an opinion on that,
although I do think the "pci-probe-only" name is not as descriptive as
it could be.  I guess somebody will argue that "preserve_config" could
be more descriptive, too :)
