What would be the best strategy for the current situation? Submit separate issues to dasharo-issues repo and discuss what and how we can fix it. Divide topics into smaller pieces that can be addressed and draw on a roadmap. Spread the word about potential improvements in the community, gather funds, or secure sponsorship. Maybe help to hack and test yourself if you have such skill.

PSA: Linux v6.1 Resizable BAR support

Just tangentially related since it has no VFIO on it, but while gathering logs involving an issue with Coreboot on MSI PRO Z690-A WIFI DDR4 and two Radeons 5600XT (Check here if interesed: https://github.com/Dasharo/dasharo-issues/issues/245 ), I found out that amdgpu in modern Kernels is capable of pretty much doing the equivalent to enable Above 4G Decoding and ReBAR even if both are disabled in Firmware, without any user input at all. Is like if they issue a general PCI MMIO reallocation or something. Based on my results, this means that Firmware options may be pretty much meaningless if amdgpu loads and does stuff, as I get a 12 GiB PCI Bridge window either way. Not sure how it conflicts with this feature.

Phoronix plan bigger write up, so I will not dive into performance data since this is not my expertise. I think we can beat performance without problems. Current performance is little off, but we did not invest in any optimization we use Intel and standard body safe defaults. This issue is probably related. Maybe u/miczyg can add something here. TBH we need one place where performance can be discussed, and I hope it would be Phoronix article.
