[PATCH v2 2/3] kernel/resource: make walk_mem_res() find all busy IORESOURCE_MEM resources

It used to be true that we can have system RAM (IORESOURCE_SYSTEM_RAM |
IORESOURCE_BUSY) only on the first level in the resource tree. However,
this is no longer holds for driver-managed system RAM (i.e., added via
dax/kmem and virtio-mem), which gets added on lower levels, for example,
inside device containers.

IORESOURCE_SYSTEM_RAM is defined as IORESOURCE_MEM | IORESOURCE_SYSRAM
and just a special type of IORESOURCE_MEM.

The function walk_mem_res() only consideres the first level and is
used in arch/x86/mm/ioremap.c:__ioremap_check_mem() only. We currently
fail to identify System RAM added by dax/kmem and virtio-mem as
"IORES_MAP_SYSTEM_RAM", for example, allowing for remapping of such
"normal RAM" in __ioremap_caller().

Let's find all IORESOURCE_MEM | IORESOURCE_BUSY resources, making the
function behave similar to walk_system_ram_res().

Fixes: ebf71552bb0e ("virtio-mem: Add parent resource for all added "System RAM"")
Fixes: c221c0b0308f ("device-dax: "Hotplug" persistent memory for use like normal RAM")
