There is no need to initialize the node before appending it to the list.

Currently acpi_dev_process_resource() returns AE_ABORT_METHOD
to terminate the acpi_walk_resources() it is called from if
the .preproc() routine provided by the caller of
acpi_dev_get_resources() initiating the resources walk returns
an error code.  It is better to use AE_CTRL_TERMINATE for this
purpose, however, so do that.

<title>ACPI: Centralized processing of ACPI device resources</title>

Currently, whoever wants to use ACPI device resources has to call
acpi_walk_resources() to browse the buffer returned by the _CRS
method for the given device and create filters passed to that
routine to apply to the individual resource items.  This generally
is cumbersome, time-consuming and inefficient.  Moreover, it may
be problematic if resource conflicts need to be resolved, because
the different users of _CRS will need to do that in a consistent
way.  However, if there are resource conflicts, the ACPI core
should be able to resolve them centrally instead of relying on
various users of acpi_walk_resources() to handle them correctly
together.

For this reason, introduce a new function, acpi_dev_get_resources(),
that can be used by subsystems to obtain a list of struct resource
objects corresponding to the ACPI device resources returned by
_CRS and, if necessary, to apply additional preprocessing routine
to the ACPI resources before converting them to the struct resource
format.

Make the ACPI code that creates platform device objects use
acpi_dev_get_resources() for resource processing instead of executing
acpi_walk_resources() twice by itself, which causes it to be much
more straightforward and easier to follow.

In the future, acpi_dev_get_resources() can be extended to meet
the needs of the ACPI PNP subsystem and other users of _CRS in
the kernel.

Move some code used for parsing ACPI device resources from the PNP
subsystem to the ACPI core, so that other bus types (platform, SPI,
I2C) can use the same routines for parsing resources in a consistent
way, without duplicating code.
