drop this variable and open-code at use point below.
As it is the comment is misplaced.
Also a slightly better way to write this:
0x1E | (acpi_pcihp ? 0x0 : 0x1)

So what acpi_pcihp does is enable/disable native pcie hotplug.
How about we call the option exactly that?

using the variable hotplug just made things confusing,
open-coding will be clearer.

One of the complaints of libvirt people was that the
name is confusing. It seems to say whether to describe bridges
in ACPI but it also disables native hotplug, but only for PCIe.

Maybe we should address this with flags saying whether to enable each of
acpi,pcie,shpc hotplug separately...
