[PATCH 1/3 v3] resource: fix an error which walks through iomem resources

From: Lianbo Jiang
Date: Fri Sep 21 2018 - 03:32:44 EST


When we walk through iomem resources by calling walk_iomem_res_desc(),
the values of the function parameter may be modified in the while loop
of __walk_iomem_res_desc(), which will cause us to not get the desired
result in some cases.

At present, it only restores the original value of res->end, but it
doesn't restore the original value of res->flags in the while loop of
__walk_iomem _res_desc(). Whenever the find_next_iomem_res() finds a
resource and returns the result, the original values of this resource
will be modified, which might lead to an error in the next loop. For
example:

The original value of resource flags is:
res->flags=0x80000200(initial value)

p->flags _ 0x81000200 _ _ 0x80000200 _
/ \ / \
|________|_______A________|____|_....._|______B_________|..........___|
0 0xffffffff
(memory address ranges)

Note: if ((p->flags & res->flags) != res->flags) continue;

When the resource A is found, the original value of this resource flags
will be changed to 0x81000200(res->flags=0x81000200), and continue to
look for the next resource, when the loop reaches resource B, it can not
get the resource B any more(you can refer to the for loop of find_next
_iomem_res()), because the value of conditional expression will become
true and will also jump the resource B.

In fact, we should get the resource A and B when we walk through the
whole tree, but it only gets the resource A, the resource B is missed.
