I don't see why this part should be in the host controller driver. It's really
a sanity check that could apply anywhere, so could we just move it into the
common code, or alternatively drop it?

This confused me too. I have to look back at the core code, but I assume it's
either aligned already based on the way this number gets created, or it
can have an offset within the page that is the same as the offset within the
physical address of iores and that hould be handled internally by
pci_remap_iospace().

I can't think of a case where you'd actually have multiple IO resources,
but I agree we should either treat that as an error or handle it right.
My guess is that handling it is actually easier.
