Not slot number, but "device-id".  Like, if you have actual
PCI plugin slots on your board, they likely have device ids
16,17,...; but slot numbers 1, 2, 3 (little labels on the box).

David's point is that unit addresses are not random numbers.

Omitting the "i" is perfectly in line with the spec :-)

Yeah, PCI is a special case for Linux.  Maybe add a "pciclass,XXXX"
compatible property though, for good measure.  Anything else isn't
all that useful I think.
