What does it mean in the context of removing the IO resource DT binding?
My AHCI SATA driver works fine with the IO DT bindings removed except
that I see the the error log for assigning IO BAR

If it expects all resources to be assigned, then it should have 
failed, right? But not.

I see following

Keystone is ARM v7 A15 based. The driver doesn't set PCI_PROBE_ONLY.
So am expect face problem when you remove PCI_PROBE_ONLY? I guess not.
I looked at pci_enable_resources()

	for (i = 0; i < PCI_NUM_RESOURCES; i++) {
		if (!(mask & (1 << i)))
			continue;

		r = &dev->resource[i];

		if (!(r->flags & (IORESOURCE_IO | IORESOURCE_MEM)))
			continue;
		if ((i == PCI_ROM_RESOURCE) &&
				(!(r->flags & IORESOURCE_ROM_ENABLE)))
			continue;

		if (r->flags & IORESOURCE_UNSET) {
			dev_err(&dev->dev, "can't enable device: BAR %d %pR not assigned\n",
				i, r);
			return -EINVAL;
		}

		if (!r->parent) {
			dev_err(&dev->dev, "can't enable device: BAR %d %pR not claimed\n",
				i, r);
			return -EINVAL;
		}

I don't see the error "can't enable device: BAR %d %pR not assigned" , so it doesn't
depend on IO bar as you mention below or is it in a different function?
