Well, for a driver that does not call dw_pcie_ep_reset_bar() in their .init() 
to disable all BARs that are enabled in the controller by default, the host 
side will assign an PCI address even if no EPF has called set_bar() on that BAR.

See e.g.
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pci/pci.git/commit/drivers/pci/controller/dwc/pcie-tegra194.c?h=controller/dwc&id=42f9c66a6d0cc45758dab77233c5460e1cf003df

There might be other EPC drivers that don't disable all BARs in their .init(), 
so I would say that simply checking if the BAR has an address is not sufficient 
to guarantee that an EPF driver has called set_bar().


I think the safest option is my second suggestion because then we know that we 
will only call
dw_pcie_ep_ib_atu_addr()

When:

1) If ep->epf_bar[bar] is set:
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/v6.19-rc6/drivers/pci/controller/dwc/pcie-designware-ep.c#L363


2) All the other requirements to dynamically update a BAR is also met:

https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/v6.19-rc6/drivers/pci/controller/dwc/pcie-designware-ep.c#L368-L370



Kind regards,
