This code is already in the "if (bsel || pcihp_bridge_en)" block statement.
the compiler just isn't smart enough to figure it out.
I do like the change though, I think repeating the condition
is fragile, it is better to have it in a single place.
Pls repost with method can be left -> gcc 9 thinks that method can be left,
no RFC tag, and I will apply.
