This is correct assumption. For 64-bit BAR[i] only pci_dev->resource[i] is
valid, pci_dev->resource[i+1] slot is unused and contains zeroes in all
fields. So all we need is just to check that we're going to update a _valid_
resource.
[Though, if we ever want to support >4Gb bus allocations on 32-bit
architectures we need to make resource start and end fields u64.]
