Recent cleanup in the way EEH support is added to a device causes a
kernel oops when the cxl driver probes a device and creates virtual
devices discovered on the FPGA:
BUG: Kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0x000000a0
Faulting instruction address: 0xc000000000048070

The root cause is that those cxl virtual devices don't have a
representation in the device tree and therefore no associated pci_dn
structure. In eeh_add_device_late(), pdn is NULL, so edev is NULL and
we oops.
We never had explicit support for EEH for those virtual
devices. Instead, EEH events are reported to the (real) pci device and
handled by the cxl driver. Which can then forward to the virtual
devices and handle dependencies. The fact that we try adding EEH
support for the virtual devices is new and a side-effect of the recent
cleanup.
This patch fixes it by skipping adding EEH support on powernv for
devices which don't have a pci_dn structure.
The cxl driver doesn't create virtual devices on pseries so this patch
doesn't fix it there intentionally.

Sam: I'm resubmitting indentically as the RFC after all. I couldn't
find a clean way to separate the non-capi virtual device case to print
a warning and I'm a bit reluctant to make heavy changes for that.
Support for cxl on pseries has been bit-rotting for a while and
because of that, we don't create virtual devices there. So I didn't
touch the pseries path. At least on pseries, if there's another
unexpected case where the pdn is NULL, we should catch it more easily
with the oops message.
