As Gerd suggested, this value is not a "delta" but the number
of buses to be reserved behind the bridge. If I got it right,
0 is not a valid value, since the bridge by definition
has a list one bus behind.

Gerd's suggestion was to set min(cap_value, children_found). >From such point of view 0 can be a valid value.



Michael, would you be OK with that?

Thanks,
Marcel
