[RFC PATCH 2/2] arm: pcibios: move to generic PCI domains

Most if not all ARM PCI host controller device drivers either ignore the
domain field in the pci_sys_data structure or just increment it every
time a host controller is probed, using it as a domain counter.

Therefore, instead of relying on pci_sys_data to stash the domain number
in a standard location, ARM pcibios code can be moved to the newly
introduced generic PCI domains code, implemented in commits:

commit 41e5c0f81d3e676d671d96a0a1fafb27abfbd9
("of/pci: Add pci_get_new_domain_nr() and of_get_pci_domain_nr()")

commit 670ba0c8883b576d0aec28bd7a838358a4be1
("PCI: Add generic domain handling")

In order to assign a domain number dynamically, the ARM pcibios defines
the function, called by core PCI code:

void pci_bus_assign_domain_nr(...)

that relies on a DT property to define the domain number or falls back to
a counter; its usage replaces the current domain assignment code in PCI
host controllers present in the kernel.
