Ingo, Please also apply this patch to the tip/out-of-tree

Incremental patch . This patch passes the pci producer resources
end_addr (got from _CRS) to the e820_search_gap function.
Without this patch the code will always search from the producer regions
start_address to 2^32, even though the producer region may be smaller.

Now , we limit the search only within the producer region's address
space.
Also we put a condition to check if the resource lies in the 32bit
address range.
