Subject: [PATCH] Revert "PCI: Avoid race while enabling upstream bridges"

This reverts commit 40f11adc7cd9281227f0a6a627d966dd0a5f0cd9.

Jens found that iwlwifi firmware loading failed on a Lenovo X1 Carbon,
gen4:

  iwlwifi 0000:04:00.0: Direct firmware load for iwlwifi-8000C-34.ucode failed with error -2
  iwlwifi 0000:04:00.0: Direct firmware load for iwlwifi-8000C-33.ucode failed with error -2
  iwlwifi 0000:04:00.0: Direct firmware load for iwlwifi-8000C-32.ucode failed with error -2
  iwlwifi 0000:04:00.0: loaded firmware version 31.532993.0 op_mode iwlmvm
  iwlwifi 0000:04:00.0: Detected Intel(R) Dual Band Wireless AC 8260, REV=0x208
  ...
  iwlwifi 0000:04:00.0: Failed to load firmware chunk!
  iwlwifi 0000:04:00.0: Could not load the [0] uCode section
  iwlwifi 0000:04:00.0: Failed to start INIT ucode: -110
  iwlwifi 0000:04:00.0: Failed to run INIT ucode: -110

He bisected it to 40f11adc7cd9 ("PCI: Avoid race while enabling upstream
bridges").  Revert that commit to fix the regression.
