memblock: don't adjust size in memblock_find_base()

Browse Source 
While applying patch to use memblock to find aperture for 64bit x86.
Ingo found system with 1g + force_iommu

> No AGP bridge found
> Node 0: aperture @ 38000000 size 32 MB
> Aperture pointing to e820 RAM. Ignoring.
> Your BIOS doesn't leave a aperture memory hole
> Please enable the IOMMU option in the BIOS setup
> This costs you 64 MB of RAM
> Cannot allocate aperture memory hole (0,65536K)

the corresponding code:

	addr = memblock_find_in_range(0, 1ULL<<32, aper_size, 512ULL<<20);
	if (addr == MEMBLOCK_ERROR || addr + aper_size > 0xffffffff) {
		printk(KERN_ERR
			"Cannot allocate aperture memory hole (%lx,%uK)\n",
				addr, aper_size>>10);
		return 0;
	}
	memblock_x86_reserve_range(addr, addr + aper_size, "aperture64")

fails because memblock core code align the size with 512M.  That could
make size way too big.

So don't align the size in that case.

actually __memblock_alloc_base, the another caller already align that
before calling that function.

BTW. x86 does not use __memblock_alloc_base...
