Maybe this was already a problem before - but I had a stupid thing in
arch/um/drivers/virt-pci.c (busn_resource has start == end == 0), and
your changes here caused that resource to be dropped off the list.

Now this wouldn't be a problem, but we add it using pci_add_resource()
and then that does a memory allocation, but you don't free it here? I'm
not sure it'd even be safe to free it here and I'll just set
busn_resource to have end==1 instead (it's all kind of virtual).

But I still wanted to ask if this might be a problem here for others.
