I don't think that test scenario is realistic. Either there are enough
resources for the PCI function or there aren't and if there aren't
then I do not think your function driver will be loaded.

Driver verifier low resource simulation may help for things like 'what
happens if I can't allocate virtual memory for my PCI memory space
BAR?'.
