Calling "PCI base addr 1" something that can actually lie at PCI_BASE_ADDR_2 is misleading. Patch follows.

I do not approve:
- the patch does not follow the comment style of the driver
- the comment should be removed, not silly augmented

This comment is misleading, since the region it refers to can actually be PCI_BASE_ADDR_2. Remove it.
