This seems very fragile. So in addition to Bjorn's comment about not
trusting firmware provided data for the segment offset in the CSR list,
you will want to also determine the controller from the ACPI tree. The
existing code walks the ACPI hierarchy and finds the CSR that way.
Obviously, the goal is to avoid that in the latest incarnation, but you
could still determine which controller matches a given device.
