resources: Add register address resource type
Currently a bunch of I2C/SPI MFD drivers are using IORESOURCE_IO for register address ranges. Since this causes some confusion due to the primary use of this resource type for PCI/ISA I/O ports create a new resource type IORESOURCE_REG. Unfortunately the current resource types are specified as bitmasks and there are no free bitmasks even though they really shouldn't be used as such so we define the new type as IORESOURCE_IO | IORESOURCE_MEM. Benjamin Herrenschmidt and Russell King have both verified that none of the users in this series will have a problem with this, and no new code should be affected. This patch was written by Russell King but he found himself unable to take the patch further.
