I was confused by the variable naming here: A variable named 'res' is
normally a 'struct resource'. Maybe better call this 'range'.

A spin_lock around the list lookup should be sufficient to get around
the race that Will mentioned.

It might be better to limit the size to 64K if it doesn't fit at first.
