The poorly-named pcibios_resource_to_bus() (I think the name is my
fault) is the way to convert a CPU physical address to a PCI bus
address.

This is implemented in terms of the host bridge windows and the
translation offset in struct resource_entry, which should be set up
via the pci_add_resource_offset() called from
devm_of_pci_get_host_bridge_resources().

Yes.  I think they're all technically incorrect.  Most systems do map
CPU phys == PCI bus, but I point it out because it's a case where
copying that pattern to new drivers will eventually bite us.
