Although not yet tested, I suppose we can do iproc_pcie_check_link
before calling pci_scan_root_bus so we can get rid of separate calls to
pci_create_root_bus and pci_scan_child_bus. But then we need to create
some dummy bus in the iproc_pcie_check_link function to allow access to
the root bus for link check, which was the primary reason why we did
pci_create_root_bus before iproc_pcie_check_link, i.e., to avoid the use
of dummy root bus.

Thanks,

Ray
