resource: Add I/O resource descriptor

walk_iomem_res() and region_intersects() still need to use
strcmp() for searching a resource entry by @name in the iomem
table.

This patch introduces I/O resource descriptor 'desc' in struct
resource for the iomem search interfaces. Drivers can assign
their unique descriptor to a range when they support the search
interfaces.

Otherwise, 'desc' is set to IORES_DESC_NONE (0). This avoids
changing most of the drivers as they typically allocate resource
entries statically, or by calling alloc_resource(), kzalloc(),
or alloc_bootmem_low(), which set the field to zero by default.
A later patch will address some drivers that use kmalloc()
without zero'ing the field.

Also change release_mem_region_adjustable() to set 'desc' when
its resource entry gets separated. Other resource interfaces are
also changed to initialize 'desc' explicitly although
alloc_resource() sets it to 0.
