insert_resource() and remove_resouce() are called by producers
of resources, such as FW modules and bus drivers.  These modules
may be implemented as loadable modules.

Add device-managed implementaions of insert_resource() and
remove_resouce() functions.

v2-UPDATE2:
 - Update per Ingo's review comments; use ret, use WARN_ON_ONCE().
v2-UPDATE:
 - Rename a helper remove func to __devm_remove_resource(). (Dan Williams)

Can we get an example of the users and show how much this would actually help?

insert_resource() is fairly unusual to begin with, and it should
basically *never* be used by a driver at all (it's more of a bus
thing).

The patch doesn't look _wrong_, but it does look potentially largely
pointless. Adding new interfaces to do things that aren't common
enough to worry about is counter-productive, imho.
