Here is the current code:

>> 	bus_range = pci->cfg.bus_range;
>> 	for (busn = bus_range->start; busn <= bus_range->end; ++busn) {
>> 		u32 idx = busn - bus_range->start;

The index is offset by the bus range start...

>>

>> 						 pci->cfg.res.start + busn * sz,

But, the offset into the "reg" property is the raw bus number.

I hope that makes it more clear.
