The recent commit 63a72284b159 ("powerpc/pci: Assign fixed PHB number
based on device-tree properties"), added code to read a 64-bit property
from the device tree, and if not found read a 32-bit property (reg).

There was a bug in the 32-bit case, on big endian machines, due to the
use of the 64-bit value to read the 32-bit property. The cast of &prop
means we end up writing to the high 32-bit of prop, leaving the low
32-bits containing whatever junk was on the stack.

If that junk value was non-zero, and < MAX_PHBS, we would end up using
it as the PHB id.

This exposed a second problem, which is that Xorg can't cope with a
domain number > 256.

So for now drop the fallback to reg, and only use "ibm,opal-phbid" for
PHB numbering.

properties")

This is my bad. Guilherme limited the reg case to pseries only, but I made it
generic. I tested it on G5, Cell etc. which all booted - but that's not really
a good enough test.
