x86/amd_nb: Unexport amd_cache_northbridges()
amd_cache_northbridges() is exported by amd_nb.c and is called by
amd64-agp.c and amd64_edac.c modules at module_init() time so that NB
descriptors are properly cached before those drivers can use them.
However, the init_amd_nbs() initcall already does call
amd_cache_northbridges() unconditionally and thus makes sure the NB
descriptors are enumerated.
That initcall is a fs_initcall type which is on the 5th group (starting
from 0) of initcalls that gets run in increasing numerical order by the
init code.
The module_init() call is turned into an __initcall() in the MODULE=n
case and those are device-level initcalls, i.e., group 6.
Therefore, the northbridges caching is already finished by the time
module initialization starts and thus the correct initialization order
is retained.
Unexport amd_cache_northbridges(), update dependent modules to
call amd_nb_num() instead. While at it, simplify the checks in
amd_cache_northbridges().
[ bp: Heavily massage and *actually* explain why the change is ok. ]
