x86/PCI: Prevent mmconfig memory corruption
commit ff097ddd4 (x86/PCI: MMCONFIG: manage pci_mmcfg_region as a list, not a table) introduced a nasty memory corruption when pci_mmcfg_list is empty. pci_mmcfg_check_end_bus_number() dereferences pci_mmcfg_list.prev even when the list is empty. The following write hits some variable near to pci_mmcfg_list. Further down a similar problem exists, where cfg->list.next is dereferenced unconditionally and a comparison with some variable near to pci_mmcfg_list happens. Add a check for the last element into the for_each_entry() loop and remove all the other crappy logic which is just a leftover of the old array based code which was replaced by the list conversion.
