This interface is a mess. I have a vague impression that this is
supposed to figure out whether a resource can be expanded, but why
does it need a struct device *? (I can read the code and see how you
use it, but it just doesn't fit in the resource abstraction.)
Supplying one struct resource * makes sense, but you have three. A
char * name? What's skip_nr? This just doesn't make sense to me.

I think you need a simpler, more general interface. update_resource()
seems OK to me -- it's pretty straightforward and has an obvious
meaning. Maybe you can make a resource_expand() or something that
just expands a resource in both directions as far as possible (until
it hits a sibling or the parent limits). Then you would know the
maximum possible size, and you could use update_resource() to shrink
it again and give up anything you don't need.

I spent most of the day merging the patches up to this point, and they
mostly make sense, but this one and the following ones are beyond my
ken, so I gave up.
