xhci_pci_quirks() is a confusing name, it actually only sets quirk flags based on PCI
vendor/device.

Anyway, point is still valid, this level of bitops in probe isn't very nice.
Turn it into a separate function, and call it from xhci_pci_setup(), or if flag
needs to be cleared more often, and is related to S3 problems then possibly from xhci_pci_suspend()
