This is a corner case that occurs for devices that are non-compliant, in this
case meaning devices that don't follow our PMT spec convention of specifying
which BAR an address belongs to. Without this information, we have to deduce the
BAR manually to access other needed registers that are offset from the base of
that BAR.

I can change this to use resource_contains().

Will change this too. Thanks.
