Currently we only free the allocated resource struct when error.
This would cause memory leak after pci_free_resource_list.

You are passing a stack variable to pci_add_resource and it doesn't
make a copy of it. I assume the resource needs to live after you exit
this function.

Ah, found your 1st patch changing the behavior. I'm surprised that
change works without affecting anyone else.
sorry, i should add a cover-letter first. and you're right, that would affect others(for example the ioport_resource/iomem_resource).

If we have a leak, can't you just add a free in the correct spot? That
would be a lot easier to review.
it seems hard to tell which resources in the list need to be freed after all...
