NO_MATCH_BAR could just be the last entry no matter how many? Who cares
if they get merged? Maybe each BAR has max size and dma-ranges could
exceed that, but if so you have to handle that and split them again.

If you just have 1 region, then just 1 entry makes sense to me. Why
can't you use BAR0 in that case?
