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().
