Sure, I did actually start down that route, but then thought maybe the 
existing style gave an excuse to be clever :)

I'll respin it into the style of arm_smmu_v3_count_resources() for v2.

Even if the resource allocation was factored out into every 
implementation, there's still some unavoidable overlap between knowing 
which resources you want to allocate beforehand and knowing which 
resources you need to initialise afterwards. Honestly I think the 
current shape of things is the best compromise already.

In this case, the price of not repeating "node->revision > 0" would be 
"res_cnt == 3 || (res_cnt == 2 && !pmcg->overflow_gsiv)" - definitely 
not an improvement to my eye.
