Setting the end address for a resource with a given size lacks a helper and is therefore coded manually unlike the getter side which has a helper for resource size calculation. Also, almost all callsites that calculate the end address for a resource also set the start address right before it like this: res->start = start_addr; res->end = res->start + size - 1; Add resource_set_range(res, start_addr, size) that sets the start address and calculates the end address to simplify this often repeated fragment. Also add resource_set_size() for the cases where setting the start address of the resource is not necessary but mention in its kerneldoc that resource_set_range() is preferred when setting both addresses.

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.
