Subject: Add IORESOUCE_BUSY flag for System RAM
From: Yasunori Goto <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

i386 and x86-64 registers System RAM as IORESOURCE_MEM | IORESOURCE_BUSY.

But ia64 registers it as IORESOURCE_MEM only.
In addition, memory hotplug code registers new memory as IORESOURCE_MEM too.

This difference causes a failure of memory unplug of x86-64.  This patch
fixes it.

This patch adds IORESOURCE_BUSY to avoid potential overlap mapping by PCI
device.
