Subject: memory-hotplug: keep the request_resource() error code
Don't overwrite the request_resource() return value with -EEXIST in
register_memory_resource(), just propagate the return value. As we return
-EBUSY instead of -EEXIST when the desired resource is already occupied
now we need to adapt acpi_memory_enable_device(). -EBUSY is currently the
only possible error returned by request_resource() so this is just a
cleanup, no functional changes intended.
