This patch needed because some chips (mostly north) can have more than
one function.

patch attached.

In the current version of dtc, if one has the line:
/config/ = "northbridge/amd/geodelx";

Then the file northbridge/amd/geodelx/dts is read in and processed. 
Magic(TM) appends the name "/dts" to the path. 

This hack is fine with chips that only do one thing. 
But some (all) northbridge parts play several roles: APIC cluster, PCI domain
device, and PCI device. The result is a need for more than one dts, since
there are three possible devices, with three types of IDs, and so on. 

To keep things sane, I am proposing to put three seperate dts files in the 
northbridge directory, name as follows:
domaindts
pcidts
apicdts

(of course these names can be anything, this is just an example).
This change will require a change to the dtc, since we can no longer
assume just one dts file, and hence need a way to name these different 
files. 

The proposed change is very simple. Given a config path as above, the 
dtc will at first try to open the path as a file, BEFORE trying to open the 
the path by appending "/dts" to it. 

So, 
/config/ = "northbridge/amd/geodelx/pcidts";

will open the pcidts file. But, 
/config/="southbridge/amd/cs5536";
will open the southbridge/amd/cs5536/dts file as before. 

Is this really going to far? Shouldn't we just require the users to 
name the dts file, instead of the magic? I am comfortable with that idea
too -- reduce magic, make things more clear. 

Comments are most welcome!

Once this change goes in, I can start to finish up the LX.

Changes: 
dtc: create a new function, fopenfile, that will only open a path if it 
really is a file. Modify dtc_open_file to use this function. fopenfile
assumes "-" means stdin; should it, or should I move that assumption back
to dtc_open_file?


dtc.h: add prototypes

dtc-parser.y: Given a config path, try to open the path first, then path/dts.
