If get_pbus() is called for a device which has no parent/ancestor bus
with nonzero PCI bus operations, get_pbus() will get stuck in a silent endless loop. Detect the endless loop and break out with an error message. Such a situation can happen if the device tree is not yet initialized/walked completely. This fixes the unexplainable hang if pci_{read,write}_config{8,16,32}was used in early mainboard code for the AMD DBM690T. Instead, the code will now die() with a meaningful error message. Thanks to Ward Vandewege for testing my patches to track down that bug.
