[PATCH 1/3] PCI: pci-host-generic: Fix lookup of linux, pci-probe-only property

When pci-host-generic looks for the probe-only property, it seems
to trust the DT to be correctly written, and assumes that there
is a parameter to the property.

Unfortunately, this is not always the case, and some firmware expose
this property naked. The driver ends up making a decision based on
whatever the property pointer points to, which is likely to be junk.

Instead, let's check for the validity of the property, and ignore
it if the firmware couldn't make up its mind.
