x86/PCI: Use host bridge _CRS info on systems with >32 bit addressing
We enable _CRS on all systems from 2008 and later. On older systems, we ignore _CRS and assume the whole physical address space (excluding RAM and other devices) is available for PCI devices, but on systems that support physical address spaces larger than 4GB, it's doubtful that the area above 4GB is really available for PCI. After d56dbf5bab8c ("PCI: Allocate 64-bit BARs above 4G when possible"), we try to use that space above 4GB *first*, so we're more likely to put a device there. On Juan's Toshiba Satellite Pro U200, BIOS left the graphics, sound, 1394, and card reader devices unassigned (but only after Windows had been booted). Only the sound device had a 64-bit BAR, so it was the only device placed above 4GB, and hence the only device that didn't work. Keep _CRS enabled even on pre-2008 systems if they support physical address space larger than 4GB.
