In principle, I think the fix is right. Currently only ISAPC's
pci_enabled is false.

I think ISAPC shouldn't need nic, so it's safe. Is this right, Phil? :)

The potential issue lies in pci_init_nic_devices() with "&bus->qbus".
Although "bus" (which is pcibus here) is NULL, the compiler seems to
optimize this, making &bus->qbus also NULL. Therefore, I did not
encounter any errors when attempting to start ISAPC.

Thanks,
Zhao
