Subject: [PATCH v3 1/3] resource: Add @flags to region_intersects()

region_intersects() checks if a specified region partially overlaps
or fully eclipses a resource identified by @name.  It currently sets
resource flags statically, which prevents the caller from specifying
a non-RAM region, such as persistent memory.  Add @flags so that
any region can be specified to the function.

A helper function, region_intersects_ram(), is added so that the
callers that check a RAM region do not have to specify its iomem
resource name and flags.  This interface is exported for modules,
such as the EINJ driver.
