Subject[PATCH 2/3] x86, 64bit, gart: Fix allocation with memblock

When trying to change alloc_bootmem with memblock to go with real top-down
Found one old system:
[ 0.000000] Node 0: aperture @ ac000000 size 64 MB
[ 0.000000] Aperture pointing to e820 RAM. Ignoring.
[ 0.000000] Your BIOS doesn't leave a aperture memory hole
[ 0.000000] Please enable the IOMMU option in the BIOS setup
[ 0.000000] This costs you 64 MB of RAM
[ 0.000000] memblock_x86_reserve_range: [0x2020000000-0x2023ffffff] aperture64
[ 0.000000] Cannot allocate aperture memory hole (ffff882020000000,65536K)
[ 0.000000] memblock_x86_free_range: [0x2020000000-0x2023ffffff]
[ 0.000000] Kernel panic - not syncing: Not enough memory for aperture
[ 0.000000] Pid: 0, comm: swapper Not tainted 2.6.37-rc5-tip-yh-06229-gb792dc2-dirty #331
[ 0.000000] Call Trace:
[ 0.000000] [<ffffffff81cf50fe>] ? panic+0x91/0x1a3
[ 0.000000] [<ffffffff827c66b2>] ? gart_iommu_hole_init+0x3d7/0x4a3

[ 0.000000] [<ffffffff827b32cc>] ? x86_64_start_reservations+0x9c/0xa0
[ 0.000000] [<ffffffff827b33e4>] ? x86_64_start_kernel+0x114/0x11b

it means __alloc_bootmem_nopanic() get too high for that aperture.

Use memblock_find_in_range() with limit directly.
