Since alloc_bootmem_core does no goal-fallback anymore and just returns
NULL if the allocation fails, we might now use it in alloc_bootmem_section
without all the fixup code for a misplaced allocation.

Also, the limit can be the first PFN of the next section as the semantics
is that the limit is _above_ the allocated region, not within.
