This patch breaks Xen really bad. It uses read_pci_config without
knowing that there is something accessible. Also read_pci_config does
not define fault handlers.

I see several ways to fix this:
- Define fault handlers for *_pci_config
- Check for Xen
- Disable early PCI access from Xen if running unpriviledged and check
  that in either in *_pci_config or early_init_amd
