[PATCH] memory hotadd fixes: change find_next_system_ram's return value manner
find_next_system_ram() returns valid memory range which meets requested area, only used by memory-hot-add. This function always rewrite requested resource even if returned area is not fully fit in requested one. And sometimes the returnd resource is larger than requested area. This annoyes the caller. This patch changes the returned value to fit in requested area.
