It is device,function, but it is only descriptive and not used by
Linux.

The reg must encode the bus number according to the OF format:

               33222222 22221111 11111100 00000000
               10987654 32109876 54321098 76543210
 phys.hi cell: npt000ss bbbbbbbb dddddfff rrrrrrrr
phys.mid cell: hhhhhhhh hhhhhhhh hhhhhhhh hhhhhhhh
 phys.lo cell: llllllll llllllll llllllll llllllll
 
bbbbbbbb is the 8-bit Bus Number
ddddd is the 5-bit Device Number
fff is the 3-bit Function Number

Others are 0.
