Those base addresses correspond to the base-addresses registers of the
board's configuration space. If a given PCI chip uses the 5th register,
then the driver must look for base_addresses[4], that's logical. They are
not assigned in any special order: which register to use depends on the
hw implementation and can make HW that uses the 2nd and 3rd registers and
not the fist, for example.
