Introduce common interface acpi_pci_root_create() and related data
structures to create PCI root bus for ACPI PCI host bridges. It will
be used to kill duplicated arch specific code for IA64 and x86. It may
also help ARM64 in future.

For x86, the memory is allocated on its local numa node if memory
is available by using kzalloc_node(), and if
node = acpi_get_node(device->handle) is NUMA_NO_NODE, the code will
get the numa node info by using x86_pci_root_bus_node() (which you
consolidate them as a function pci_acpi_root_get_node() in later
patch).

but the code here just ignore that information, so the code
here has functional change for x86 code since you didn't use numa
information.

I'm not sure how frequently used for the info after init, so
not sure about the performance impact, but I think we should
keep consistence with the code behavior as before.
Hi Hanjun,
	Good catch, will change code to respect NUMA node
info when allocating memory.
Further more, there is a implicit cast for
struct acpi_pci_root_info_common *info to arch specific
struct pci_root_info *info by using extra size, it's not
easy to understand (at least for me :) ), so how about
alloc the memory in arch specific function, and pass
struct acpi_pci_root_info_common *info fr this function?
Good suggestion.
Thanks!
Gerry
other than that, this code is pretty good, I reworked ARM64
ACPI based PCI host bridge init code, and this patch simplified
the coed a lot, will have a test tomorrow and let you know
the result.

Thanks
Hanjun
