I removed it because there were no users of it and, more importantly,
the code doesn't implement support for it.

Fixed, thanks!

You're right that we only override cfgres if the quirk supplies a
struct resource with non-zero .start.  I removed MCFG_RES_EMPTY
because mcfg_quirks[] is a static array and is initialized with all
members being zero anyway.  If a quirk doesn't need to override
cfgres, I think it's more readable if the quirk just doesn't mention
the resource at all.
