That sounds like pretty arbitrary restrictions. For one you can detect
invalid BARs, so selecting the right one should be easy. Also it seems
like adding support for both I/O and memory BARs in the same binary
should be relatively easy to do and not add a whole lot of code to the
driver. But even if you only want one variant you can still select the
correct port and not rely on the region defined in DTB.
Like you said, bus number and addresses are assigned at runtime, so if
you rely on DTB you also need code to make sure the DTB matches reality
to prevent breakage. That sounds a lot more complicated than simply
using what's there in the PCI configuration space already.
