Subject: [PATCH 1/2] resources: set type of new resource returned by
	__request_region()

Previously we returned a new struct resource with only IORESOURCE_BUSY
set (and possibly IORESOURCE_MUXED or IORESOURCE_EXCLUSIVE), but no
MEM/IO/etc. bits set.  The new resource should inherit the type of
its parent.
