There is an existing comedi_request_region(dev, start, len) function used by COMEDI drivers for legacy devices to request an I/O port region starting at a specified base address (which must be non-zero) and with a specified length. It uses request_region(). On success, it sets dev->iobase and dev->iolen and returns 0. There is a alternative function __comedi_request_region(dev, start, len) which does the same thing without setting dev->iobase and dev->iolen. Most hardware devices have restrictions on the allowed I/O port base address and alignment, so add new functions comedi_check_request_region(dev, start, len, minstart, maxend, minalign) and __comedi_check_request_region(dev, start, len, minstart, maxend, minalign) to perform these additional checks. Turn the original functions into static inline wrapper functions that call the new functions.
