I had thought of "PCI_PROBE_ONLY" as the "look but don't touch" flag,
i.e., never change any BAR or bridge window assignments. But I guess
the current usage is more general than that: we also use it to

- avoid pci_enable_resources(), which only turns on IO/MEM bits in
the command register
- avoid pcie_bus_configure_settings(), which programs MPS and MRRS
- avoid pci_read_bridge_bases(), which really just *reads* bridge windows
- avoid pcibios_reserve_legacy_regions(), which doesn't touch any
PCI registers
- enables pci_claim_resource()

This seems like more than necessary, but I don't know all the history.
In particular, I don't know why PCI_PROBE_ONLY should make a
difference to things like claiming resources.
