pc, pc64: revert addition of pcireset() call to pcicfginit()

Revert the change, as it causes system lockups on bootup
on some systems with USB OHCI controllers, suspected to be
caused by BIOS/SMM accessing the device as BIOS handover
has not been executed yet.

We might bring that back when the problem has is better
understood.
