ACPI / PNP: Avoid conflicting resource reservations

commit 0f1b414d190724617eb1cdd615592fa8cd9d0b50 upstream.

Commit b9a5e5e18fbf "ACPI / init: Fix the ordering of
acpi_reserve_resources()" overlooked the fact that the memory
and/or I/O regions reserved by acpi_reserve_resources() may
conflict with those reserved by the PNP "system" driver.

If that conflict actually takes place, it causes the reservations
made by the "system" driver to fail while before commit b9a5e5e18fbf
all reservations made by it and by acpi_reserve_resources() would be
successful.  In turn, that allows the resources that haven't been
reserved by the "system" driver to be used by others (e.g. PCI) which
sometimes leads to functional problems (up to and including boot
failures).

To fix that issue, introduce a common resource reservation routine,
acpi_reserve_region(), to be used by both acpi_reserve_resources()
and the "system" driver, that will track all resources reserved by
it and avoid making conflicting requests.
