Return value of __ffs is undefined if no set bit exists in
its argument. This indicates that the associated BAR has
invalid alignment.

I know this is solving a theoretical problem.  Is it also solving a
*real* problem?

I dislike the way it complicates the code and the usage of "align" and
"order".  I know that when "!align", we don't evaluate the
"order >= ARRAY_SIZE()" (which would involve an uninitialized value),
but it just seems ugly, and I'm not sure how much we benefit.

And the "disabling BAR" part is gross.  I know you're not changing
that part, but it's just wrong.  Setting r->flags = 0 certainly does
not disable the BAR.  It might make Linux ignore it, but that doesn't
mean the hardware ignores it.  When we turn on PCI_COMMAND_MEMORY, the
BAR is enabled along with all the other memory BARs.

Thanks for the detailed explanation. Is there any way to properly
disable the BAR?
On the side note do you think this problem is
worth solving? I came across this during code inspection.
I mean if practically there aren't chances of
this bug occuring I'm okay with dropping this patch.

Thanks,
Amey

Unfortunately there is no way to disable an individual BAR.
PCI_COMMAND_MEMORY applied to *all* memory BARs, and the same for
PCI_COMMAND_IO.

I guess I would just drop it.  Yes, it's a potential problem, but I
couldn't figure out a solution that really seemed clean.
