use update_memory_range instead of add_memory_range directly
to avoid closing that gap.

[Jesse Barnes]

The new function could probably use some higher level comments (though the 
rest of the e820 routines seem similarly devoid of description so it's not a 
big deal).  And given that this patch fixes a regression, it should probably 
get upstream quickly.

Thanks for fixing this so quickly, Yinghai.

thanks Yinghai, applied, and queued up for 2.6.25.
