x86: only scan the root bus in early PCI quirks
We found a situation on Linus' machine that the Nvidia timer quirk hit on
a Intel chipset system. The problem is that the system has a fancy Nvidia
card with an own PCI bridge, and the early-quirks code looking for any
NVidia bridge triggered on it incorrectly. This didn't lead a boot
failure by luck, but the timer routing code selecting the wrong timer
first and some ugly messages. It might lead to real problems on other
systems.
I checked all the devices which are currently checked for by early_quirks
and it turns out they are all located in the root bus zero.
So change the early-quirks loop to only scan bus 0. This incidently also
saves quite some unnecessary scanning work, because early_quirks doesn't
go through all the non root busses.
The graphics card is not on bus 0, so it is not matched anymore.
