It should be 1 node per BAR but in some cases it is not.

Indeed, in the LAN966x case, the pci-ep-bus need to have access to several
BARs and we have:
	...
	pci-ep-bus@0 {
		compatible = "simple-bus";
		#address-cells = <1>;
		#size-cells = <1>;

		/*
		 * map @0xe2000000 (32MB) to BAR0 (CPU)
		 * map @0xe0000000 (16MB) to BAR1 (AMBA)
		 */
		ranges = <0xe2000000 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x2000000
		          0xe0000000 0x01 0x00 0x00 0x1000000>;
	...

Some devices under this bus need to use both BARs and use two regs values
in their reg properties to access BAR0 and BAR1.

IMHO, the node should not have 'bar' in the name.
In the LAN966x PCI use case, multiple BARs have to be accessed by devices
under this simple-bus. That's why I choose pci-ep-bus for this node name.
