nb/amd/pi,sb/amd/sr5650: Remove unnecessary allocation
add_ivrs_device_entries() is a recursive function, and each recursive
call is passed a pointer to a root_level variable declared outside the
function. In an attempt to make the function self-contained, the initial
call is made with the root_level pointer set to NULL, and then the
function attempts to detect this and allocate a root_level variable for
the rest of the calls. This makes memory management very tricky - for
example, the pi code incorrectly attempts to free the root_level
variable at the end of *each* recursive call, which only avoids being a
double-free because free() in coreboot is currently a no-op. Let's
keep life simple and declare root_level as a local variable outside the
first function call instead.
