Yes, but it should be board code that does this, as it's a workaround
for a broken device tree.
Maybe have a common helper function that finds a toplevel PCI bus that
contains a node matching a supplied of_match. This could be used for
both the ISA lookup and the i8259 lookup, and any other weird thing some
board might have as long as it can be uniquely represented with of_match.
