"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.
