I didn't mean that.

Rather, something along the lines of, for example,
the DEFINE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE matching but match those
resource matching functions using the strings, i.e.,
"(walk_iomem_res|find_next_iomem_res|region_intersects)" or so and
warn when new code uses them and that it should rather use the new
desc-matching variants.
