x86/e820: Fix very large 'size' handling boundary condition

The (start, size) tuple represents a range [start, start + size - 1],
which means "start" and "start + size - 1" should be compared to see
whether the range overflows.

For example, a range with (start, size):

	(0xffffffff fffffff0, 0x00000000 00000010)

represents

	[0xffffffff fffffff0, 0xffffffff ffffffff]

... would be judged overflow in the original code, while actually it is not.

This patch fixes this and makes sure it still works when size is zero.
