Ahh found it. memblock_align is called with SMP_CACHE_BYTES (64) bytes
alignment.
Using a 32byte alignment solves the memory resource warning I was
seeing on RV32 boot.

I still prefer one time allocation before the loop instead of
memblock_alloc invocation
in every iteration (both mem_region & reserved_mem_region). This is
happening during boot time.
The less work it does, it is better. Let me know if you think there
are any downsides to this approach.

Otherwise, I will revise my patch and send it.
