The first patch in this series introduces the following 4 helper functions to
the PCI core:

* pci_request_mem_regions()
* pci_request_io_regions()
* pci_release_mem_regions()
* pci_release_io_regions()

which encapsulate the request and release of a PCI device's memory or I/O
bars.

The subsequent patches convert the drivers, which use the
pci_request_selected_regions(pdev, 
	pci_select_bars(pdev, IORESOURCE_MEM), name); 
and similar pattern to use the new interface.

This was suggested by Christoph Hellwig in
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-nvme/2016-May/004570.html and
tested on kernel v4.6 with NVMe.

I applied all six of these to pci/resources for v4.8, thanks, Johannes.
