[PATCH 2/2] x86, range: make add_range use blank slot

From: Yinghai Lu
Date: Sun Jun 09 2013 - 16:00:55 EST


Now add_range_with_merge will generate blank slot as subtract_range.
we could reach the array limit because of blank slots.

We can let add_range to have second try to use blank slot.

Also use WARN_ONCE to print trace.
