I think this can be simplified to:

         if (epc_features->bar[bar].type == BAR_FIXED)
             test_bar_size = epc_features->bar[bar].fixed_size;
         else
             test_bar_size = bar_size[bar];

because if the bar type is BAR_FIXED, then the size of the bar can only be its
fixed size.
That is correct, however, please consider the following case:

- The BAR under test is BAR4 , therefore the size requested by this driver is
bar_size[4] = 131072 Bytes
- The BAR4 on a hypothetical hardware is a fixed size BAR , 262144 Bytes large

With your proposed change, the "test_bar_size" would end up being 262144
Bytes , instead of 131072 Bytes without your proposed change , which I think is
not the desired behavior.

What do you think ?

The bar size for the test is arbitrary. If the bar being tested is not a fixed
bar, anything is OK. But in the case of a fixed bar, you can only use the fixed
bar size so we should force that.
OK, understood. I'll run tests on V2 and then submit a V2.

Thanks !
