The problem in my case didn't occur because ACPI was lacking a resource.
It has one "extra" resource that Jason's original code didn't
recognize. 

Jason's code was wrongly assuming that a resource that isn't of type
"IRQ" has to be of type "MEMORY". If I print out the resource types
encountered in tpm_check_resource(), I get
ACPI_RESOURCE_TYPE_FIXED_MEMORY32  (0x0a) first, followed by
ACPI_RESOURCE_TYPE_END_TAG (0x07). The latter was mistakenly used by
Jason't code as a memory resource. This is how ACPI ResourceTemplates
work (a list with an end marker). The correct solution is to always
check the return value of acpi_dev_resource_memory(), as it's currently
implemented in Jason't current "for-jarkko" branch.
