These would always be correct whether you have 6 or 7 cells. pna is the
parent bus address cells size. The pci address is fixed at 3 cells.

I look at the PCI DT code in powerpc and see a whole bunch of code that
seems like it should be common. The different per arch pci structs
complicates that. No one has really gotten to looking at PCI DT on ARM
yet except you and Thierry for Tegra. We definitely don't want to create
a 3rd copy. Starting the process of moving it to something like
drivers/pci/pci-of.c would be great.
