acpi: Allow child drivers to use bus_set_resource for more resources

acpi_set_resource excludes certain types of resources for certain
devices. The intention of this is to avoid adding resource entries
for bogus resources enumerated via _CRS. However, this also prevents
drivers from adding those resources explicitly if needed. To fix
this, move the logic to exclude these resources into an ignore hook
used when parsing _CRS to create the initial set of resources for each
device.

acpi: Cleanup handling of suballocated resources

For resources suballocated from the system resource rmans, handle
those in the ACPI bus driver without passing them up to the parent.
This means using bus_generic_rman_* for several bus methods for
operations on suballocated resources. For bus_map/unmap_resource,
find the system resource allocated from the parent bus (nexus) that
contains the range being mapped and request a mapping of that parent
resource.

This avoids a layering violation where nexus drivers were previously
asked to manage the activation and mapping of resources created
belonging to the ACPI resource managers.

Note that this does require passing RF_ACTIVE (with RF_UNMAPPED) when
allocating system resources from the parent.

While here, don't assume that the parent bus (nexus) provides a
resource list that sysres resources are placed on. Instead, create a
dedicated resource_list in the ACPI bus driver's softc to hold sysres
resources.

# e9a00a5d 09-Apr-2019 John Baldwin <jhb@FreeBSD.org>

Refine r330113 to honor the ProducerConsumer flag most of the time.

While it is true that the ACPI spec says that the flag is only valid
on Extended Address Space Descriptors, examples of other descriptors
in the spec use the ProducerConsumer flag explicitly, and real
hardware uses it as well. In fact, even in the ASL of the Thunder X2
for which r330113 was a workaround, some devices use this flag on
non-Extended Address Space Descriptors correctly. Instead, only
ignore the flag for resources associated with the UART devices on the
Thunder X2 using the "ARMH0011" HID to identify these devices.

This should fix regressions from ignoring this flag in other contexts
such as Hyper-V.

acpica: rework INTRNG interrupts

On arm64 (where INTRNG is enabled), the interrupts have to be mapped
with ACPI_BUS_MAP_INTR() before adding them as resources to devices.

The earlier code did the mapping before calling acpi_set_resource(),
which bypassed code that checked for PCI link interrupts.

To fix this, move the call to map interrupts into acpi_set_resource()
and that requires additional work to lookup interrupt properties.
The changes here are to:
* extend acpi_lookup_irq_handler() to lookup an irq in the ACPI
resources
* create a helper function acpi_map_intr() which uses the updated
acpi_lookup_irq_handler() to look up an irq, and then map it
with ACPI_BUS_MAP_INTR()
* use acpi_map_intr() in acpi_pcib_route_interrupt() to map
pci link interrupts.

With these changes, we can drop the ifdefs in acpi_resource.c, and
we can also drop the call for mapping interrupts in generic_timer.c

Workaround fixed I/O port resources encoded as I/O port ranges in _CRS.

ACPI I/O port descriptors use _MIN and _MAX fields to specify the set
of allowable base (start) addresses for an I/O port resource along with
a _LEN field specifying the length. A fixed resource is supposed to be
encoded with _MIN == _MAX, but some buggy firmwares instead set _MAX to
the end of the fixed range. Relocating I/O ranges only make sense in
_PRS (possible resource settings), not in _CRS (current resource settings),
so if an I/O port range with _MAX set set to the end of the range is
present in _CRS, treat it as a fixed I/O port resource starting at
_MIN.

Migrate to using the semi-opaque type rman_res_t to specify rman resources. For
now, this is still compatible with u_long.

This is step one in migrating rman to use uintmax_t for resources instead of
u_long.

Going forward, this could feasibly be used to specify architecture-specific
definitions of resource ranges, rather than baking a specific integer type into
the API.

Don't attach special devices in the order they appear in the AML tree.
If the embedded controller exists before the sysresource devices, for
example, it will be attached first. Instead, let the normal device
order function work as we first desired. [1]

There still remained a problem where we couldn't allocate resources in
acpi0 that were passed up by the sysresource pseudo-devices. These
devices had to probe/attach first to give their resources to acpi, then
acpi would allocate them before probing/attaching other devices. To
work around this, we attach them from acpi_sysres_alloc(). A better
approach would be to implement multi-pass probe/attach in newbus but
that's a much bigger task.

Rework sysresource management. Instead of having each sysresource object
hold its own values, pass them up to the parent (acpi0) and merge/uniq them
on the way. After the namespace evaluation, acpi will reserve these
resources and manage them via rman before bus_generic_probe() and
bus_generic_attach(). This is necessary because some systems specify
conflicting resources in separate sysresource objects. It's also cleaner
in that the interface between sysresource and acpi is now merely the parent's
resource list. This code handles the following cases:

1. Unique resource: add it to the parent via bus_set_resource().
2. New wholly contained in old: discard new.
3. New tail overlaps old head: grow old head downward.
AND/OR
4. New head overlaps old tail: grow old tail upward.

Correctly handle BIOS resources that are duplicated (!). There are many

sysctems. It should eventually be moved to resource_list_add() if it is
a valid generalized approach. The minimal approach for 5.3 is:

"Loop through all current resources to see if the new one overlaps
any existing ones. If so, the old one always takes precedence and
the new one is adjusted (or rejected). We check for three cases:

1. Tail of new resource overlaps head of old resource: truncate the
new resource so it is contiguous with the start of the old.
2. New resource wholly contained within the old resource: error.
3. Head of new resource overlaps tail of old resource: truncate the
new resource so it is contiguous, following the old."

Add support to ACPI to manage its own resources. Previously, resource
allocation was passed up to nexus. Now, we probe sysresource objects and
manage the resources they describe in a local rman pool. This helps
devices which attach/detach varying resources (like the _CST object) and
module loads/unloads. The allocation/release routines now check to see if
the resource is described in a child sysresource object and if so,
allocate from the local rman. Sysresource objects add their resources to
the pool and reserve them upon boot. This means sysresources need to be
probed before other ACPI devices.

Changes include:
* Add ordering to the child device probe. The current order is: system
resource objects, embedded controllers, then everything else.
* Make acpi_MatchHid take a handle instead of a device_t arg.
* Replace acpi_{get,set}_resource with the generic equivalents.
