You are trying to change SUBORDINATE_BUS on the CardBus bridge, but it
looks fine to me.  It will decode the 03:00.0 device.  I suggest that
you check SUBORDINATE_BUS on the PCI-to-PCI bridge.  If it's less than
3, then it needs to be adjusted.

In any case, I think pci=assign-busses would do a better job than manual
settings.
