I spent extra time going through the probe function and I just don't see
how it is not done in the exact reverse, I checked every single goto
statement in probe.

I noticed this though:

>>> rcar_pcie_get_resources() is called while the device is

rcar_pcie_get_resources() is NOT a pair function for
pci_free_resource_list() . rcar_pcie_parse_request_of_pci_ranges() is a
pair function for pci_free_resource_list().

rcar_pcie_parse_request_of_pci_ranges() calls
of_pci_get_host_bridge_resources() internally, so every single function
called after successful call of rcar_pcie_parse_request_of_pci_ranges()
must call pci_free_resource_list().

Both of_pci_get_host_bridge_resources() and pci_free_resource_list() are
called with runtime PM disabled.

The naming of the functions is confusing though.
