[RFC PATCH v2 1/4] dt: expose device resource allocator

[Marc Zyngier]

of_device_alloc() takes care of allocating both a platform
device and its associated resource, as part of the runtime
device-tree to platform_device conversion.

The resource allocation itself is useful on its own, and
would be used by the core driver subsystem.  Create the
of_device_alloc_resources() function, and let of_device_alloc()
use it.
