Commit ff2126225df0 changed the error message to be more
detailed about the failure at hand; however, while the new
error message claims that "bus must be <= index", the error
message is displayed if "idx <= addr->bus", ie. when bus
is bigger than or *equal to* index.

Change the error message to report the correct constraint,
and format it in a way that mirrors the check exactly to
make it clearer to people reading the code. The new error
message reads "must be index > bus".

I'm assuming the code, which is pre-existing, is correct
here. CC'ing Laine for insights.

ACK, but instead of re-ordering it into something that doesn't sound like a natural sentence, you could use "larger than" instead of ">", and word it like this:

PCI controller at index %d (0x%02x) has bus='0x%02x', but index must be larger than bus

Either way it's going to get the idea across though :-)

Also, a BZ was actually filed about this :-O, so I suppose you should reference the BZ number (1339900)

                                 idx, idx, addr->bus);
                  goto cleanup;
              }
