Subject: [PATCH 07/16] PCI: of: Remove fwnode_dev_initialized() call for a PCI root bridge node

During the instantiation of devices described by a device-tree overlay
applied on a PCI device, devlink displays the following kind of debug
messages instead of creating the expected links:
   'Not linking xxxx - might never become dev'

Without those expected links, the device removal order cannot be
correct.

Those debug traces are printed by fw_devlink_create_devlink(). In our
use case, they are all printed because the supplier of the link has at
least one of its ancestor with its fwnode flag FWNODE_FLAG_INITIALIZED
set.

The culprit ancestor is the PCI root bridge.

The fwnode related to the PCI root bridge is created dynamically by the
of_pci_make_host_bridge_node() function. During this creation
fwnode_dev_initialized() is called which set the FWNODE_FLAG_INITIALIZED
flag.

Calling fwnode_dev_initialized() tells devlink that the device related
to this node is handled out of the driver core. This is not correct in
our case. Indeed the device related to this firmware node is handled
using driver core mechanisms and is fully compliant devlink
expectations.

Simply remove the fwnode_dev_initialized() call. With that done, the
devlink debug messages are no more displayed and links that were missing
are correctly created.
