Yep, you're right.  I fixed it, but it requires changes to a couple
other patches down the line, so I'll wait to repost the series until
next week in case you find more problems.

I think this is only a problem for bisection.  By the time you
apply the whole series, we start with an empty resource list, and
every time we add one, we set the type in pnp_new_resource().

That makes me wonder whether pnp_init_resources() should just
free the whole list, so we just start again with an empty list.
