This patch series fixes a regression introduced by:

    i2c: piix4: Add support for multiplexed main adapter in SB800

The regression caused sp5100_tco fail to load:

piix4_smbus 0000:00:14.0: SMBus Host Controller at 0xb00, revision 0
piix4_smbus 0000:00:14.0: Using register 0x2c for SMBus port selection
piix4_smbus 0000:00:14.0: Auxiliary SMBus Host Controller at 0xb20
sp5100_tco: SP5100/SB800 TCO WatchDog Timer Driver v0.05
sp5100_tco: PCI Vendor ID: 0x1002, Device ID: 0x4385, Revision ID: 0x42
sp5100_tco: I/O address 0x0cd6 already in use

The previous two versions of this patch series introduced
a common mutex to synchronize access to the I/O port pair
0xcd6 / 0xcd7 used by the AMD SB800 USB PCI quirk code and
the i2c-piix and sp5100_tco drivers. The common mutex was
criticized because it introduces an inter-dependency between
drivers.

This approach modifies the request_muxed_region() semantics and
modifies the possible use cases.

The first patch in the series adds a new IORESOURCE_ALLOCATED
flag that alloc_resource() sets and free_resource() considers.
The core of __request_region() is factored out into a new function
that doesn't allocate. With this change, drivers can use the
pre-existing DEFINE_RES_IO_NAMED() static initialized macro
to declare struct resource statically (e.g. on the stack)
and pass the address of it to the new __request_declared_region()
function. A new macro called request_declared_muxed_region()
was added to exploit this functionality. Because of the new
IORESOURCE_ALLOCATED resource flag, release_region() can still
be called with the old interface (the port region start and
end values) and it won't attempt to free a non-allocated resource.
This eliminated one failure case that can come from allocation
errors.

The second patch modifies the behaviour of IORESOURCE_MUXED,
a.k.a. the request_*muxed_region() macros. When these macros
are called, the caller goes to sleep when there is any conflicting
regions, even if the conflicting region did not use the
IORESOURCE_MUXED flag. The kernel logs this inconsistent
flag usage with KERN_ERR. This change eliminates the second
failure case for IORESOURCE_MUXED and request_muxed_region()
can be used like mutex_lock(), i.e. it returns only in case it
could successfully request the region.

The last three patches adds proper synchronization to
the USB PCI quirks code and the i2c-piix and sp5100_tco drivers.

The result is that the sp5100_tco driver can load and works again:

piix4_smbus 0000:00:14.0: SMBus Host Controller at 0xb00, revision 0
piix4_smbus 0000:00:14.0: Using register 0x2c for SMBus port selection
piix4_smbus 0000:00:14.0: Auxiliary SMBus Host Controller at 0xb20
sp5100_tco: SP5100/SB800 TCO WatchDog Timer Driver v0.05
sp5100_tco: PCI Vendor ID: 0x1002, Device ID: 0x4385, Revision ID: 0x42
sp5100_tco: Using 0xfed80b00 for watchdog MMIO address
sp5100_tco: Last reboot was not triggered by watchdog.
sp5100_tco: initialized (0xffffba2f4192db00). heartbeat=60 sec (nowayout=0)
