Some machines don't boot unless passed pci=nocrs.
(See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=770308 for details of
  one report. Waiting on dmidecode output for others).

Currently there is a DMI whitelist, even though the default is on.

This patch extends that dmi list to add a blacklist to automatically
apply disable it when necessary.
