It isn't clear what purpose the @bardirty serves. It might be used to avoid the unnecessary vfio_bar_fixup() invoking on a user-space BAR read, which is not required when bardirty is unset. The variable was introduced in commit 89e1f7d4c66d ("vfio: Add PCI device driver") but never actually used, so it shouldn't be that important. Remove it.
