Subject: [PATCH v4 05/23] resource: Report parent to walk_iomem_res_desc()
 callback

In support of detecting whether a resource might have been been claimed,
report the parent to the walk_iomem_res_desc() callback. For example,
the ACPI HMAT parser publishes "hmem" platform devices per target range.
However, if the HMAT is disabled / missing a fallback driver can attach
devices to the raw memory ranges as a fallback if it sees unclaimed /
orphan "Soft Reserved" resources in the resource tree.

Otherwise, find_next_iomem_res() returns a resource with garbage data
from the stack allocation in __walk_iomem_res_desc() for the res->parent
field.

There are currently no users that expect ->child and ->sibling to be
valid, and the resource_lock would be needed to traverse them. Use a
compound literal to implicitly zero initialize the fields that are not
being returned in addition to setting ->parent.
