Subject: [PATCH 19/25] lmb: Add array resizing support
When one of the array gets full, we resize it. After much thinking and
a few iterations of that code, I went back to on-demand resizing using
the (new) internal lmb_find_base() function, which is pretty much what
Yinghai initially proposed, though there some differences in the details.
To work this relies on the default alloc limit being set sensibly by
the architecture.
