Doorbell register offset should means Base on DB BAR. 
How about "The formula of  door register offset refer to DB BAR"?

Addr is absolute physical IO address, which increased by 4. But it doesn't matter.
It should be okay if range is between 2^32.

I want to directly using db_offset[irq] value as offset. It will be simple. 

I am not sure why ntb_hw_epf.c use below formular.   
 "Db_offset[irq] + irq * db_entry_size"

Db_entry_size = 0 will be simple,  all offset will be controlled by db_offset[]

You can save db_offset[] as 0, 4, 8... or 0, 8, 16 as needs.

Yes, that's one method.
I want to use one method to calc db offset for both software polling
and MSI.  So overall logic should be simple.
