Subject[PATCH] kernel/resource.c: fix stack overflow in __reserve_region_with_split
Date
Using recurvise call to try adding a non-conflicting region in the function
__reserve_region_with_split() could result in a stack overflow in the case
that the recursive calls are too deep. Convert the recursive calls to
an iterative loop to avoid the problem.
