All the regions maintained in hugetlb reserved map is inclusive on "from" but exclusive on "to". We can break earlier even if rg->from==t because it already means no possible intersection. This does not need a Fixes in all cases because when it happens (rg->from==t) we'll not break out of the loop while we should, however the next thing we'd do is still add the last file_region we'd need and quit the loop in the next round. So this change is not a bugfix (since the old code should still run okay iiuc), but we'd better still touch it up to make it logically sane.
