[PATCH V5 03/12] PCI: dwc: Allow external allocation of pci_host_bridge

Currently, dw_pcie_host_init() always allocates a new pci_host_bridge
structure internally using devm_pci_alloc_host_bridge(). This prevents
drivers from pre-allocating the bridge structure when needed.

Modify dw_pcie_host_init() to check if pp->bridge is already set. If
set, use the pre-allocated bridge instead of allocating a new one. This
maintains backward compatibility with existing drivers that don't set
pp->bridge, while allowing new drivers to pre-allocate when needed.
