"reg" for PCI config registers has length 0 always, it's defined that
way in the PCI binding.

But if this thing is transparent, it doesn't have PCI config regs.

If truly transparent, the node should just not be there at all!

Yeah.  The preferred name for PCI-to-PCI bridge nodes is simply "pci", 
btw.
