pci_do_scan_bus() and pci_bus_find_capability() are marked EXPORT_SYMBOL and thus usable outside of the PCI drive core itself. Make the prototypes

Well, no, I'd like to only have the pci hotplug drivers use them if
possible.  So until we have proper namespaces on the exported symbols,
I'd really like to keep these as-is if possible.

Or are you needing these symbols for some code outside of the
drivers/pci/ directory tree?

I need pci_bus_find_capability() in arch/powerpc pci code.

I'm using it as a way to tell if we are a PCIe PHB.
