You included the link below, so I guess you found the answer to this,
but PCI devices can have:

  - up to six normal BARs (pci_dev.resource[0-5])

  - a ROM BAR (pci_dev.resource[6])

  - up to six SR-IOV BARs (pci_dev.resource[7-12])

  - four windows (for bridges) (pci_dev.resource[13-16])

> Or is a BAR different from a "resource"?

Yes, as above.  Not all can be used at once, e.g., bridges can only
have two BARs and may not implement all four windows, and SR-IOV VFs
can't use the normal BARs at all.

This is an implementation thing, not a PCI spec thing, but I count a
maximum of 17 resources if CONFIG_PCI_IOV is defined.
