If acpi_dev_get_resources() returns overlapping I/O or memory resources,
the subsequent registration of a platform device will fail with -EBUSY
due to a resource conflict. This is reported to happen on Acer Aspire
ES1-572 [1].
Avoid that by adjusting resources returned by acpi_dev_get_resources()
to eliminate partial overlaps between them.
This has not been regarded as necessary before because putting
overlapping resources into the _CRS of one device is really pointless,
but now that the issue has been reported to actually happen in the
field, it needs to be done.

Can we use resource_union() instead?

Or maybe.
Let me see if this works.
