     PCI: Remove pci_find_parent_resource() use for allocation

     If the resource hasn't been allocated yet, 
pci_find_parent_resource() is
     documented as returning the region "where it should be allocated from."
     This is impossible in general because there may be several 
candidates: a
     prefetchable BAR can be put in either a prefetchable or 
non-prefetchable
     window, a transparent bridge may have overlapping positively- and
     subtractively-decoded windows, and a root bus may have several 
windows of
     the same type.

     Allocation should be done by pci_bus_alloc_resource(), which iterates
     through all bus resources and looks for the best match, e.g., one 
with the
     desired prefetchability attributes, and falls back to less-desired
     possibilities.

     The only valid use of pci_find_parent_resource() is to find the 
parent of
     an already-allocated resource so we can claim it via 
request_resource(),
     and all we need for that is a bus region of the correct type that 
contains
     the resource.

     Note that like 8c8def26bfaa ("PCI: allow matching of prefetchable 
resources
     to non-prefetchable windows"), this depends on 
pci_bus_for_each_resource()
     iterating through positively-decoded regions before 
subtractively-decoded
     ones.  We prefer not to return a subtractively-decoded region because
     requesting from it will likely conflict with the overlapping 
positively-
     decoded window (see Launchpad report below).
