Alistair Popple 56fd94919b kernel/resource: fix locking in request_free_mem_region
request_free_mem_region() is used to find an empty range of physical
addresses for hotplugging ZONE_DEVICE memory.  It does this by iterating
over the range of possible addresses using region_intersects() to see if
the range is free before calling request_mem_region() to allocate the
region.

However the resource_lock is dropped between these two calls meaning by
the time request_mem_region() is called in request_free_mem_region()
another thread may have already reserved the requested region.  This
results in unexpected failures and a message in the kernel log from
hitting this condition:

        /*
         * mm/hmm.c reserves physical addresses which then
         * become unavailable to other users.  Conflicts are
         * not expected.  Warn to aid debugging if encountered.
         */
        if (conflict->desc == IORES_DESC_DEVICE_PRIVATE_MEMORY) {
                pr_warn("Unaddressable device %s %pR conflicts with %pR",
                        conflict->name, conflict, res);

These unexpected failures can be corrected by holding resource_lock across
the two calls.  This also requires memory allocation to be performed prior
to taking the lock.
