Subject: [PATCHv3 2/5] lib/genalloc.c: Add genpool range check function

After allocating an address from a particular genpool,
there is no good way to verify if that address actually
belongs to a genpool. Introduce addr_in_gen_pool which
will return if an address plus size falls completely
within the genpool range.
