From: Toshi Kani <toshi.kani@hpe.com>
The IORESOURCE_MEM I/O resource type is used for all types of memory-mapped ranges, ex. System RAM, System ROM, Video RAM, Persistent Memory, PCI Bus, PCI MMCONFIG, ACPI Tables, IOAPIC, reserved, and so on.
This requires walk_system_ram_range(), walk_system_ram_res(), and region_intersects() to use strcmp() against string "System RAM" to search for System RAM ranges in the iomem table, which is inefficient. __ioremap_caller() and reserve_memtype() on x86, for instance, call walk_system_ram_range() for every request to check if a given range is in System RAM ranges.
However, adding a new I/O resource type for System RAM is not a viable option, see [1]. There are approx. 3800 references to IORESOURCE_MEM in the kernel/drivers, which makes it very difficult to distinguish their usages between new type and IORESOURCE_MEM.
The I/O resource types are also used by the PNP subsystem. Therefore, introduce an extended I/O resource type, IORESOURCE_SYSTEM_RAM, which consists of IORESOURCE_MEM and a new modifier flag IORESOURCE_SYSRAM, see [2].
To keep the code 'if (resource_type(r) == IORESOURCE_MEM)' still working for System RAM, resource_ext_type() is added for extracting extended type bits.
