That is the "pcinum" in the "PCIx" code in the mvme5500/pci directory.  
There are indeed two completely independent PCI busses on the mvme5500, 
and "pcinum" is which of the two independent busses is being accessed.

I went over the mvme5500 and PMCSPAN documents last night.  I believe I 
see the layout now.  I'll send a summary in a little while after I go 
over the code to see what it is doing and what it isn't.  It definitely 
does not properly handle PCI bridges such as the one on the PMCSPAN or 
any PMC module with a PCI bridge on it.  I won't have time to fix 
things properly now, but it will help someone else looking to sort it 
out.
