At the time of LPAR reboot, partition firmware provides Open Firmware
property ibm,dma-window for the PE. This property is provided on the PCI
bus the PE is attached to.

There are execptions where the partition firmware might not provide this
property for the PE at the time of LPAR reboot. One of the scenario is
where the firmware has frozen the PE due to some error conditions. This
PE is frozen for 24 hours or unless the whole system is reinitialized.

Within this time frame, if the LPAR is rebooted, the frozen PE will be
presented to the LPAR but ibm,dma-window property could be missing.

Today, under these circumstances, the LPAR oopses with NULL pointer
dereference, when configuring the PCI bus the PE is attached to.
