resources: fix x86info results ioremap.c:226 __ioremap_caller+0xf2/0x2d6() WARNINGs

Some of the pages below the 1MB ISA addresses will be shared typically by both
BIOS and system usable RAM. For example:
BIOS-e820: 0000000000000000 - 000000000009f800 (usable)
BIOS-e820: 000000000009f800 - 00000000000a0000 (reserved)
x86info reads the low physical address using /dev/mem, which internally
uses ioremap() for accessing non RAM pages. ioremap() of such low
pages conflicts with multiple resource entities leading to the
above warning.
Change the iomem_map_sanity_check() to allow mapping a page spanning multiple
resource entities (minimum granularity that one can map is a page anyhow).
