Ok. Here is another take. I have used "select" in arch dependent files to
select CONFIG_RESOURCES_64BIT forcibly if 64BIT is set. Please suggest if
there is an arch independent way to do that.

There is a small issue though. On 64bit kernels RESOURCES_64BIT should not
be exprimental as rosources are already 64bit. "select" will make sure
that RESOURCES_64BIT is set but following line will be visible to user on
64bit platforms and user might be confused about "EXPERIMENTAL" keyword.

"64 bit Memory and IO resources (EXPERIMENTAL)"

At the same time this key word is required on 32bit platforms so that user
knows that this is something new and experimental.

Please suggest if there is a way to handle this situation. Ideally I would
like to set RESOURCES_64BIT on 64bit platforms without prompting anything
to user.

o Introuces CONFIG_RESOURCES_64BIT Kconfig option.
