note: kmemleak[523] exited with preempt_count 2

The crash happens when a no-map area is allocated in
early_init_dt_alloc_reserved_memory_arch(). The allocated region is
registered with kmemleak, but it is then removed from memblock using
memblock_remove() that is not kmemleak-aware.

Replacing __memblock_alloc_base() with memblock_find_in_range() makes sure
that the allocated memory is not added to kmemleak and then
memblock_remove()'ing this memory is safe.

As a bonus, since memblock_find_in_range() ensures the allocation in the
specified range, the bounds check can be removed.
