Yes, I get the general idea.

then I want to confirm which size __find_res_top_free_size() will return.

Come to the previous question, for one resource like this.
res =   90-150
    ->child      105-140
We call __find_res_top_free_size(res, 1);
This function should return which size?  10? 15? or 25?

>From the code 
+               ret = __allocate_resource(res, &tmp_res, n_size,
+                       res->end - n_size + skip_nr, res->end,
+                       1, NULL, NULL, false);
I think it will check the free space near the end of res. 

I did one test on __find_res_top_free_size(res, 1) of this example.
And returned 10. Which means, it find the free space (141-150).

So I want to confirm this function really returns the size of free space
at the end of the res. not the biggest one or the sum.
