Resource sizes are a general concept for dealing with physical
addresses, and not specific to the Resource type, which is just one way
to access physical addresses. Thus, move the typedef to the io module.
Still keep a re-export under resource. This avoids this commit from
being a flag-day, but I also think it's a useful re-export in general so
that you can import
use kernel::io::resource::{Resource, ResourceSize};
instead of having to write
use kernel::io::{
resource::Resource,
ResourceSize,
};
in the specific cases where you need ResourceSize because you are using
the Resource type. Therefore I think it makes sense to keep this
re-export indefinitely and it is *not* intended as a temporary re-export
for migration purposes.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
