Hi Wei,

Things have changed...the register_new_memory() routine is accepting a single section,
but instead of registering just that section, it is registering a containing block.
(That works, because apparently the approach is to make sections_per_block == 1,
and eventually kill sections, if I am reading all this correctly.)

So, how about this: let's add a line to the function comment: 

* Register an entire memory_block.

That makes it clearer that we're dealing in blocks, even though the memsection*
argument is passed in.

A pages_per_block variable would be nice here, too.
