resource: avoid unnecessary lookups in find_next_iomem_res()
find_next_iomem_res() shows up to be a source for overhead in dax
benchmarks.
Improve performance by not considering children of the tree if the top
level does not match. Since the range of the parents should include the
range of the children such check is redundant.
Running sysbench on dax (pmem emulation, with write_cache disabled):
sysbench fileio --file-total-size=3G --file-test-mode=rndwr \
--file-io-mode=mmap --threads=4 --file-fsync-mode=fdatasync run
Provides the following results:
