Guilherme G. Piccoli af64f74e5f Revert "powerpc/eeh: Fix crash in eeh_add_device_early() on Cell"

commit c2078d9ef600bdbe568c89e5ddc2c6f15b7982c8 upstream.

This reverts commit 89a51df5ab1d38b257300b8ac940bbac3bb0eb9b.

The function eeh_add_device_early() is used to perform EEH
initialization in devices added later on the system, like in
hotplug/DLPAR scenarios. Since the commit 89a51df5ab1d ("powerpc/eeh:
Fix crash in eeh_add_device_early() on Cell") a new check was introduced
in this function - Cell has no EEH capabilities which led to kernel oops
if hotplug was performed, so checking for eeh_enabled() was introduced
to avoid the issue.

However, in architectures that EEH is present like pSeries or PowerNV,
we might reach a case in which no PCI devices are present on boot time
and so EEH is not initialized. Then, if a device is added via DLPAR for
example, eeh_add_device_early() fails because eeh_enabled() is false,
and EEH end up not being enabled at all.

This reverts the aforementioned patch since a new verification was
introduced by the commit d91dafc02f42 ("powerpc/eeh: Delay probing EEH
device during hotplug") and so the original Cell issue does not happen
anymore.
