Subject: [PATCH 4.4 02/68] x86/quirks: Apply nvidia_bugs quirk only on root bus

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Lukas Wunner <lukas@...ner.de>

commit 447d29d1d3aed839e74c2401ef63387780ac51ed upstream.

Since the following commit:

  8659c406ade3 ("x86: only scan the root bus in early PCI quirks")

... early quirks are only applied to devices on the root bus.

The motivation was to prevent application of the nvidia_bugs quirk on
secondary buses.

We're about to reintroduce scanning of secondary buses for a quirk to
reset the Broadcom 4331 wireless card on 2011/2012 Macs. To prevent
regressions, open code the requirement to apply nvidia_bugs only on the
root bus.
