PCIE device tree bindings - Could you help me to understand?

Hello All,

I am working to develop a PCIE driver that requires DT bindings. Could 
someone point me to a documentation or code or explain how to interpret 
the following device tree bindings. I understand the reg property only. 
There is outbound PCIE memory and inbound PCIE memory. But can't 
understand the below bindings for the same. Also how the interrupt 
mapping works? Below dts bindings is copied from 
powerpc/boot/dts/ep405.dts. Surprisingly I am not seeing any example 
pcie bindings on ARM architecture even though there PCI or PCIE drivers 
available on ARM. Your help is appreciated.

                 PCI0: pci at ec000000 {
                         device_type = "pci";
                         #interrupt-cells = <1>;
                         #size-cells = <2>;
                         #address-cells = <3>;
                         compatible = "ibm,plb405gp-pci", "ibm,plb-pci";
                         primary;
                         reg = <0xeec00000 0x00000008    /* Config space

                                0xeed80000 0x00000004    /* IACK */
                                0xeed80000 0x00000004    /* Special cycle */
                                0xef480000 0x00000040>;  /* Internal

                         /* Outbound ranges, one memory and one IO,
