Change all PCIBIOS_SUCCESSFUL to 0

Could you please tell me what difference this makes? It looks like source 
churn rather than a substantive change. The symbol is defined in pci.h and is 
used in many architures. Certainly, PCIBIOS_SUCCESSFUL indicates success even 
more clearly than 0 does.

It is a trivial first step towards a probably significant task. I explained in

(properly this time). Probably, too many addresses.

I have resent it. It is here

Why is your name inside quotes in your s-o-b?

To keep me company before I get to know my way within the kernel.

I saw people with >2 names do it, so I did! Please let me know if it is odd.

Thank you for the explanations. The cover letter did help.

For both SSB and BMCA changes,
