Resource Allocation in v3

[Myles Watson]

This patch has been languishing while I've been trying to hash out the dts
stuff.

The basic idea of this patch is that it splits resource allocation into
three passes:
Read
Sum
Assign

This puts code with my mail from last week.

It applies to head and compiles.  It does a fairly good job on serengeti
(the same allocations as before).  I haven't tried it on other platforms.

so we're going to need a tutorial on how to change northbridges etc.

phase4_assign_resources -- what do we do if we were using that in, e.g., i945?

There should be very few changes.  I think the 3-step process is so much
easier to understand that it will be a major improvement.

I guess I don't know enough about i945 to see where your question is
leading.  I'm expecting that there's domain code, and that's where I'd put
anything special.

Thanks,
