Hi Niklas,

I verified this patch series, along with the one linked below, on the 
Jetson AGX Orin platform:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pci/20260222193456.2460963-1-mmaddireddy@nvidia.com/T/#t

I reviewed the BAR details in the lspci -vvv output—all three BARs are 
enabled.
I also ran pci_endpoint_test, and all tests passed successfully.

Thanks,
Manikanta
