Like the other one
(https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240328180126.23574-1-amishin@t-argos.ru/),
I think this potentially avoids a NULL pointer dereference (though I
didn't do the analysis in this case to see whether that's actually
possible), but fails to consider the implication of simply skipping
the rest of ks_pcie_setup_rc_app_regs().

"start" and "end" are used only for the loop about "Using Direct 1:1
mapping of RC <-> PCI memory space".  If there's no IORESOURCE_MEM
resource, obviously that loop makes no sense.  The function would
probably be improved by moving the resource_list_first_type() so it's
next to the loop that uses the result.

But the rest of the function doesn't depend on that IORESOURCE_MEM
resource, and it's not at all clear that the rest of the function
should be skipped.
