I think this patch should be after the:
"PCI: endpoint: Add dynamic_inbound_mapping EPC feature"
patch...

...then you can change this condition to:

	if (epf_bar->use_submap &&
	    !(epc_features->dynamic_inbound_mapping &&
	      epc_features->subrange_mapping))
		return -EINVAL;

This text should probably also mention that this feature depends on the
dynamic_inbound_mapping feature.


With those comments fixed, looks good to me:
