[PATCH v3 2/3] eal/freebsd: avoid claiming memseg holes

[Jake Freeland <jfree@FreeBSD.org>]

When need_hole is false, memseg searches will only be done for a single
element. If the search starts at beginning of the list, an element that
was previously reserved as a hole may be wrongly claimed.

To avoid this, begin the search following the last used entry. This way,
we ignore all pre-existing holes.
