[PATCH] remove linux,pci-domain from OFDT

[John Rose]

The patch below scraps the creation of the "linux,pci-domain" property in the
OF device tree for each PCI Host Bridge.  This seems appropriate for the
following reasons:

1) It isn't referenced/used in the kernel.
2) It isn't exported to userspace, since it's added after /proc/device-tree
   is created.
3) Even if it was correctly exported to userspace, the same info is already
   available in sysfs.

Please apply, if there are no problems.

Thanks-
John
