[PATCH 20/50] memblock: split memblock_find_base() out of __memblock_alloc_base()

[Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org>]

From: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

This will be used by the array resize code and might prove useful
to some arch code as well at which point it can be made non-static.

Also add comment as to why aligning size is important

[ Yinghai Lu ]: it should return MEMBLOCK_ERROR when it fail to find a range
