+ * the actual resource boundaries are not of interest (e.g., it might be
+ * relevant for DIMMs). Only resources that are marked mergeable, that have the
+ * same parent, and that don't have any children are considered. All mergeable
+ * resources must be immutable during the request.
+ *
+ * Note:
+ * - The caller has to make sure that no pointers to resources that are
+ *   marked mergeable are used anymore after this call - the resource might
+ *   be freed and the pointer might be stale!
+ * - release_mem_region_adjustable() will split on demand on memory hotunplug
