Correct. If BAR0 is specified in epc_features as reserved and also
64-bit, the loop would skip BAR0 by executing the 'continue'
statement. In this scenario, BAR1 doesn't exist since the 64-bit BAR0
spans the two 32-bit BAR0 and BAR1. The loop index 'bar' would be
advanced by 2 in this case so on the next iteration the loop would
process BAR2.

If both BAR0 and BAR2 are reserved and also 64-bit, the loop would
check BAR0 on its first iteration and skip BAR0 and BAR1, check BAR2
on its second iteration and skip BAR2 and BAR3, then check BAR4 on its
third iteration. If BAR4 is also 64-bit and reserved, the loop would
skip BAR4 and BAR5 and that would be the final iteration of the loop.
