I like this patch and I think it's correct.

The only thing that bothers me is that Martin reported that lspci showed
"Memory at <ignored>" for this BAR:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43331#c36 .

I guess this is because lspci reads the BAR values from
/sys/bus/pci/devices/.../config, which uses pci_read_config(), which
actually reads config space again, so it sees whatever is actually in the
BAR, not the cleared out resource in the pci_dev. Oh well, I guess that's
OK.
