It's not a major leak, but in the case where the region we're
scanning already has some MRs at the start followed by a big enough
empty region, we will first find and leak those initial MRs
before we find and use the empty space. So there are some usage
patterns where we'll leak something and not immediately exit QEMU.
Applied to target-arm.next, thanks (with the commit message tweaked).
