No, I was just reviewing the recent Tianocore changes to perform BAR
resizing before resource assignment even takes places, which is
obviously a more appropriate time to do it, as it does not require the
OS to modify the firmware configuration at all. This reminded me of
_DSM #5 and the fact that the OS may not even be permitted to make any
changes.
