Should we not do this check first?  Or do you expect some platform
to fill out these hooks in the check call above?  Othewise we will
branch to function pointer NULL.

Do we really need a new file for these simple hooks?  It doesn't look
like anthing else is going to be added to it either.   I'd prefer to
just do an ifdef in pci.c.   Hmmm, we don't seem to have that, but
these are soo small I'd include machdep.h and put them inline in
asm-powerpc/pci.h.
