temp_end represents the address of the last available byte. Therefore, the
starting address of the memory segment with temp_end as its last available
byte and a size of `kbuf->memsz`, that is, the value of temp_start, should
be `temp_end - kbuf->memsz + 1` instead of `temp_end - kbuf->memsz`.
Additionally, use the ALIGN_DOWN macro instead of open-coding it directly
in locate_mem_hole_top_down() to improve code readability.
