Besides, I removed IORESOURCE_BUS_HAS_VGA flag which was unused for ages.

This patch removes the extern struct resource declarations for
data_resource, code_resource and bss_resource on x86 and declares that
three structures as static as done on other architectures like IA64.
On i386, these structures are moved to setup_32.c (from e820_32.c) because
that's code that is not specific to e820 and also required on EFI systems.
That makes the "extern" reference superfluous.
On x86_64, data_resource, code_resource and bss_resource are passed to
e820_reserve_resources() as arguments just as done on i386 and IA64. That
also avoids the "extern" reference and it's possible to make it static.

A clean up patch for "scanning memory resource [start, end)" operation.
Now, find_next_system_ram() function is used in memory hotplug, but this
interface is not easy to use and codes are complicated.
This patch adds walk_memory_resouce(start,len,arg,func) function.
The function 'func' is called per valid memory resouce range in [start,pfn).

Both old-IDE and libata should be able handle all controllers and
devices found using normal resource reservation methods.
This eliminates the awful, low-performing split-driver configuration
where old-IDE drove the PATA portion of a PCI device, in PIO-only mode,
and libata drove the SATA portion of the /same/ PCI device, in DMA mode.
Typically vendors would ship SATA hard drive / PATA optical
configuration, which would lend itself to slow (PIO-only) CD-ROM
performance.
For Intel users running in combined mode, it is now wholly dependent on
your driver choice (potentially link order, if you compile both drivers
in) whether old-IDE or libata will drive your hardware.
In either case, you will get full performance from both SATA and PATA
ports now, without having to pass a kernel command line parameter.

Implement device resource management, in short, devres. A device
driver can allocate arbirary size of devres data which is associated
with a release function. On driver detach, release function is
invoked on the devres data, then, devres data is freed.
devreses are typed by associated release functions. Some devreses are
better represented by single instance of the type while others need
multiple instances sharing the same release function. Both usages are
supported.
devreses can be grouped using devres group such that a device driver
can easily release acquired resources halfway through initialization
or selectively release resources (e.g. resources for port 1 out of 4
ports).
This patch adds devres core including documentation and the following
managed interfaces.
* alloc/free : devm_kzalloc(), devm_kzfree()
* IO region : devm_request_region(), devm_release_region()
* IRQ : devm_request_irq(), devm_free_irq()
* DMA : dmam_alloc_coherent(), dmam_free_coherent(),
dmam_declare_coherent_memory(), dmam_pool_create(),
dmam_pool_destroy()
* PCI : pcim_enable_device(), pcim_pin_device(), pci_is_managed()
* iomap : devm_ioport_map(), devm_ioport_unmap(), devm_ioremap(),
devm_ioremap_nocache(), devm_iounmap(), pcim_iomap_table(),
pcim_iomap(), pcim_iounmap()

Since commit 368c73d4f6 the kernel will try
to update the non-writeable BAR registers 0..3 of PIIX4 IDE adapters if
pci_assign_unassigned_resources() is used to do full resource assignment of
the bus. This fails because in the PIIX4 these BAR registers have
implicitly assumed values and read back as zero; it used to work because
the kernel used to just write zero to that register the read back value did
match what was written.
The fix is a new resource flag IORESOURCE_PCI_FIXED used to mark a resource
as non-movable. This will also be useful to keep other import system
resources from being moved around - for example system consoles on PCI
busses.

Support a shadowed ROM when running with an ACPI capable PROM.
Define a new dev.resource flag IORESOURCE_ROM_BIOS_COPY to
describe the case of a BIOS shadowed ROM, which can then
be used to avoid pci_map_rom() making an unneeded call to
pci_enable_rom().

ACPI supplies a "shareable" indication, but PNPACPI ignores it. If a PNP
device uses a shared interrupt, request_irq() fails because the PNP driver
can't tell whether to supply SA_SHIRQ.
This patch allows PNP drivers to test
(pnp_irq_flags(dev, 0) & IORESOURCE_IRQ_SHAREABLE)

This patch allows hot-add memory which is not aligned to section.
Now, hot-added memory has to be aligned to section size. Considering big
section sized archs, this is not useful.
When hot-added memory is registerd as iomem resoruce by iomem resource
patch, we can make use of that information to detect valid memory range.
Note: With this, not-aligned memory can be registerd. To allow hot-add
memory with holes, we have to do more work around add_memory().
(It doesn't allows add memory to already existing mem section.)

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
