This +PCI device has three PCI-bars, each bar contains a complete I2C +controller. So we have a total of three independent I2C-Controllers +which share only an interrupt line. +The driver is probed via the PCI-ID and is gathering the information of +attached devices from the devices tree. +Grant Likely recommended to use the ranges property to map the PCI-Bar +number to its physical address and to use this to find the child nodes +of the specific I2C controller.
