Sorry for the typesetting in previous mail and noise again,

I've took a look at pci-rcar-gen2.c, this is a similar case I can found
for Honghui's case. It gathers two ports reg regions into one, and uses
the "slot id" to calculate the cfg base of each port.

Perhaps this is a example for those who need to use subnodes and use
port registers for cfg operation. Not sure whether it's worthwhile doing
that since we need to changes ports/host structures.
