urgh.  gen_pool_chunk.end_addr should have been made exclusive, not
inclusive.  Or switch to start_addr/size.  The code would be
considerably nicer that way.

And the struct gen_pool_chunk definition should be moved into
genalloc.c.  I'm not sure what drivers/acpi/apei/ghes.c is doing
fiddling around with genalloc internals, but it should stop doing it.

Sigh :(
