Some Broadcom based wireless devices contain dangling ethernet cores.
This triggers the ssb probing mechanism and tries to load the b44 driver
on this core.
Ignore the dangling core in the ssb core scanning code to avoid
access to the core and failure of b44 probing.

Use function pci_is_pcie() instead of accessing struct member directly.

Make it possible to read out the attributes, till now only show on
dmesg, through sysfs.
This patch was some time in OpenWrt.

This hacks leads to incorrect SPROM parsing for me and reading for example MAC
as: 00:00:00:54:00:00. Michael G. who introduced this confirmed it is not
needed anymore.

MMIO log traces obtained using the Broadcom wl hybrid driver show that
the RETRY_TIMEOUT register (0x41) in PCI configuration space is cleared
if non-zero. Similar code found in other drivers such as ipw2100 show
this operation is needed to keep PCI Tx retries from interfering with
C3 CPU state. There are no known cases where omission of this code has
caused a problem, but this patch is offered just in case such a situation
occurs.

Ethernet driver b44 does register ssb by it's pcihost_wrapper
and doesn't set ssb_chipcommon. A check on this value
introduced with commit d53cdbb94a
and ea2db495f9 triggers:
