This talks about config space, but the ranges field is PCI memory
space. Also, does this actually work because I though Linux expects
memory BARs to be 1MB aligned.

Getting the controller offset should work whether you specify the
address as 0x13000 with translation or the absolute address
0x20013000. In other words, the driver should know how many bits to
mask off to get the offset.
