The `cirrus-qemu` driver relies on `CIRRUS_VRAM_SIZE` (4 MB) to validate
framebuffer sizes. However, during PCI probe, the driver mapped BAR0
without verifying that its size matches `CIRRUS_VRAM_SIZE`.
If a PCI device with a BAR0 smaller than 4 MB is bound to the driver, the
mapped VRAM will be smaller than expected. Because validation checks assume
4 MB VRAM, framebuffers larger than the mapped memory can be created.
When the display plane is updated (e.g. during release),
`cirrus_primary_plane_helper_atomic_update()` copies the framebuffer to
VRAM using `drm_fb_memcpy()`. Writing past the end of the mapped I/O memory
causes a supervisor write page fault:
BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffc9000389c000
#PF: supervisor write access in kernel mode
#PF: error_code(0x0002) - not-present page
...
RIP: 0010:memcpy_toio+0x7c/0xe0 arch/x86/lib/iomem.c:110
...
Call Trace:

Fix this by validating in `cirrus_pci_probe()` that the PCI BAR0 resource
length equals `CIRRUS_VRAM_SIZE`, returning `-ENODEV` if it does not match.

v2:
- Reject device in probe if PCI BAR0 resource length does not equal CIRRUS_VRAM_SIZE instead of dynamically tracking VRAM size.
- Retain CIRRUS_VRAM_SIZE and keep atomic check and mode validation hooks unchanged.
