Yes, multiple ranges will work fine. You can make up a representation
yourself if you don't know what the hardware really does.

Two possible ways of doing this would be

a)

	/* two separate physical connections represented as one logical bus */
	axi at 20000000 {
		#address-cells = <2>;
		#size-cells = <1>;
		ranges = <0 0 0x20000000 0x10000000>, /* configurable registers */
			 <1 0 0x51000000 0x01000000>; /* PCI host registers */

		pci at 1.0 {
			reg = <1 0 0x01000000>, /* host registers */
				<0 0x1000 0x2000>; /* config space */
		}

	};

b) 

	/* one physical bus, with some address munging */
	axi at 20000000 {
		#address-cells = <1>;
		#size-cells = <1>;
		ranges = <0 0x20000000 0x10000000>, /* configurable registers */
			 <0x51000000 0x51000000 0x01000000>; /* PCI host registers */

		pci at 1.0 {
			reg = <0x51000000 0x01000000>, /* host registers */
				<0x1000 0x2000>; /* config space */
		}

	};

simple-bus is best here, since you don't have a complex bus that needs to
be set up using register accesses or that generates interrupts.
