atomic_read followed by atomic_set is not an atomic operation.

As I previously said, I don't like how this function is a mixture of
data retrieval and domian # allocation. I think we need 2 functions.

I still do not like using aliases here. Just put pci-domain or
linux,pci-domain into the PCI node.

I think we should assume all PCI root buses either have a domain
property or they don't and a mixture is an error. I'm not sure if that
simplifies the code or not though.

In the interest of merging, I think you should just do a simple
allocation and add the DT domain handling as a second step. You will
also need to document the DT part.
