Subject: resource: make alloc_free_mem_region() works for iomem_resource
Date: Fri, 6 Sep 2024 11:07:12 +0800

During developing a kunit test case for region_intersects(), some fake
resources need to be inserted into iomem_resource.  To do that, a resource
hole needs to be found first in iomem_resource.

However, alloc_free_mem_region() cannot work for iomem_resource now. 
Because the start address to check cannot be 0 to detect address wrapping
0 in gfr_continue(), while iomem_resource.start == 0.  To make
alloc_free_mem_region() works for iomem_resource, gfr_start() is changed
to avoid to return 0 even if base->start == 0.  We don't need to check 0
as start address.
