x86/PCI: allocate space from the end of a region, not the beginning
Allocate from the end of a region, not the beginning. For example, if we need to allocate 0x800 bytes for a device on bus 0000:00 given these resources: [mem 0xbff00000-0xdfffffff] PCI Bus 0000:00 [mem 0xc0000000-0xdfffffff] PCI Bus 0000:02 the available space at [mem 0xbff00000-0xbfffffff] is passed to the alignment callback (pcibios_align_resource()). Prior to this patch, we would put the new 0x800 byte resource at the beginning of that available space, i.e., at [mem 0xbff00000-0xbff007ff]. With this patch, we put it at the end, at [mem 0xbffff800-0xbfffffff].
