- Split series in multiple patches (Danilo)
- Move IoMem and Resource into its own files (Danilo)
- Fix a missing "if exclusive {...}" check (Danilo)
- Fixed the example, since it was using the old API (Danilo)
- Use Opaque in `Resource`, instead of NonNull and PhantomData (Boqun)
- Highlight that non-exclusive access to the iomem might be required in some cases
- Fixed the safety comment in IoMem::deref()

Changes in v3:
- Rebased on top of v5 for the PCI/Platform abstractions
- platform_get_resource is now called only once when calling ioremap
- Introduced a platform::Resource type, which is bound to the lifetime of the
platform Device
- Allow retrieving resources from the platform device either by index or
name
- Make request_mem_region() optional
- Use resource.name() in request_mem_region
- Reword the example to remove an unaligned, out-of-bounds offset
- Update the safety requirements of platform::IoMem
Changes in v2:
- reworked the commit message
- added missing request_mem_region call (Thanks Alice, Danilo)
- IoMem::new() now takes the platform::Device, the resource number and
the name, instead of an address and a size (thanks, Danilo)
- Added a new example for both sized and unsized versions of IoMem.
- Compiled the examples using kunit.py (thanks for the tip, Alice!)
- Removed instances of `foo as _`. All `as` casts now spell out the actual
type.
- Now compiling with CLIPPY=1 (I realized I had forgotten, sorry)
- Rebased on top of rust-next to check for any warnings given the new
unsafe lints.

I've tested this patch-set with my ARM 32-bit arm patches[0] on a De1Soc (Fpga + Arm Cortex A9).
I've got it to work by changing the three instances of u64 (mentioned on the individual patches) to bindings::resource_size_t.
I used a small Fpga configuration that allows me to change a led from the kernel driver.
So with these fixed:
