1) Is this a regression? It sounds like you don't know for sure
because earlier kernels don't support your platform.
Whats the background of the question? The board is offially supported
since 5.8. I doubt that the code responsible to not touch the ExpROM
BAR in pci_std_update_resource() were recently changed/added; the
comment refers to a mail from 2005. So no I don't think it is a
regression per se.
It is just that some combination of hardware and firmware will program
the BARs in away so that this bug is triggered. And chances of this
happing are very unlikely.
Do we agree that it should be irrelevant how the firmware programs and
enables the BARs in this case? I.e. you could "fix" u-boot to match the
way linux will assign addresses to the BARs. But that would just work
around the real issue here. IMO.
2) Can you open a bugzilla at https://bugzilla.kernel.org and attach
the complete dmesg and "sudo lspci -vv" output? I want to see whether
Linux is assigning something incorrectly or this is a consequence of
some firmware initialization.
Sure, but you wouldn't even see the error with "lspci -vv" because
lspci will just show the mapping linux assigned to it. But not whats
written to the actual BAR for the PCI card. I'll also include a
"lspci -xx". I've enabled CONFIG_PCI_DEBUG, too.

3) If the Intel i210 is defective in how it handles an Expansion ROM
that overlaps another BAR, a quirk might be the right fix. But my
guess is the device is working correctly per spec and there's
something wrong in how firmware/Linux is assigning things. That would
mean we need a more generic fix that's not a quirk and not tied to the
Intel i210.
Agreed, but as you already stated (and I've also found that in the PCI
spec) the Expansion ROM address decoder can be shared by the other BARs
and it shouldn't matter as long as the ExpROM BAR is disabled, which is
the case here.
I've included the Intel ML, maybe the Intel guys can comment on that.

This entire splat is overkill. The useful part is what somebody who
trips over this might google for. Strip out the "cut here", the
timestamps, the register dump, and the last 6-8 lines of the call
trace.
This seem to be different from subsys to subsys, but whatever ;)
