On some platforms such as that based on x86, ia64 etc, root bus is

On these platforms, the patch series "PCI: get DMA configuration from
parent device" when applied causes kernel crash. So add a check for this
in of_pci_dma_configure()

Wouldn't these arches have OF disabled and call an empty function?
The current patch series does have a empty function if OF is disabled.
Regardless, we still need this.
These archs have OF enabled, but they call pci_create_root_bus() with NULL parent node passed in. That is why the crash happens.

I'm assuming Bjorn will apply this.
