should be [start, end) right?
and
[A, B),[B, C)

so in your case new start will be B ?

next run will be C

also e820 should be sanitized already to have [A,C).

or you are talking about [A,B), [B+1, C)
first run start will be B,  and next run with [B+1, ...), that will be
skipped...
will not return 1.

so old code should be ok.
