"v1 -> v2": * move check from memblock_search to memblock_is_memory * modify changelog When checking the indicated address belongs to the memory region, the memory regions are checked one by one through binary search, which would be a little time consuming. If the indicated address isn't in memory region, then we needn't do the time-sonsuming search. The patch adds more check on the indicated address for that purpose.
