I could be missing something, but I don't think we can do this. I
would think the simplest possible presilicon testing would find errors
like this, and the first attempt to have a driver claim the device
would fail if required BARs were missing, so I'm not sure what this
would add.

While the subject line says "type 0 devices," this code path is also
used for type 1 devices (bridges), and it's quite common for bridges
to have no BARs, which means they would all be hardwired to zero.

It is also legal for even type 0 devices to implement no BARs. They
may be operated entirely via config space or via device-specific BARs
that are unknown to the PCI core.
