Changed the description to:


``index``
    pci-root controllers for ``pSeries`` guests use this attribute to record the
    order they will show up in the guest (:since:`Since 3.6.0`). :since:`Since 8.1.0`,
    ``powernv`` domains uses this attribute to indicate which slot inside the
    chip the pcie-root controller will use.



Thanks,


Daniel
