It means at PCI bus 0 slot 12 you have a board that returned a vendor ID
of 0xFFFF, it is a storage class controller (ie, disk controller), it has
a PCI map entry of 10 slots at io address 330.  I happen to know that this
is a BT946C with the BIOS enabled and the ``Use default address'' turned on.

BusLogic kinda screws things up here by nuking the vendor ID if the BIOS
is running in ISA compatibility I/O address mode :-(.
