On multi-PCI-segment systems, each segment has to be expected to have
an include-all DRHD and an all-ports ATSR, so the firmware consistency
check incorrectly rejects valid configurations there (which is
particularly problematic when the firmware also pre-enabled x2apic
mode, as the system will panic in that case due to being unable to
enable interrupt remapping). Thus constrain the check to just segment 0
for now; once full multi-segment support is there (which I'm working
on), it can be revisited whether we'd want to track this per segment,
or whether we trust the firmware of such large systems.
