Koichiro Den 88a71941b9 PCI: dwc: ep: Return after clearing BAR-match inbound mapping
dw_pcie_ep_clear_ib_maps() first checks whether the inbound mapping for a
BAR is in BAR Match Mode (tracked via ep_func->bar_to_atu[bar]). Once
found, the iATU region is disabled and the bookkeeping is cleared.

BAR Match Mode and Address Match Mode mappings are mutually exclusive for a
given BAR, so there is nothing left for the Address Match Mode teardown
path to do after the BAR Match Mode mapping has been removed.

Return early after clearing the BAR Match Mode mapping to avoid running the
Address Match Mode teardown path. This makes the helper's intention
explicit and helps detect incorrect use of pci_epc_set_bar().
