[U-Boot] [PATCH] Make it possible to allocate physical address 0 with lmb

LMB doesn't currently handle allocating regions based at physical address 0. This patch reworks the lmb_alloc functions to return all ones when allocation fails instead of zero so that callers can differentiate between a region allocated at zero and a failed allocation

Oops, sent this one out too early. It will not apply against current mainline since it it based on an older tree. Still, please take a look and let me know it this looks appropriate. I'll get this rebased and retested against top of tree.

Do you intentionally change the printf() into a debug() here? If yes, what is your rationale for not printing a proper error message in production code?

No, that was a mistake. I'll correct it.
