[PATCH 3/5] scripts/gdb: Add io resource readers
From: Kieran Bingham
Date: Wed Jan 20 2016 - 06:16:52 EST
Provide iomem_resource and ioports_resource printers and command hooks

These two readers are a useful extract of kernel information.
This shows the power of having these commands in gdb/scripts as you can
halt a kernel as it's booting and read these as the structures grow.
It should be useful in the event that a kernel is not booting, you
can identify what memory resources have been registered
