Sorry I do not understand your suggestion very well. Do you mean the 
alignment check should be 2X SECTION_SIZE?

        if (!section_memblock_limit && !(end & (2 * SECTION_SIZE - 1))) {

I found that this solution is based on the fact that the first memory block is 
always SECTION_SIZE-aligned. So we do not have to check the
alignment of the first memblock:

        if (!section_memblock_limit)) {
                section_memblock_limit = end;
                memblock_set_current_limit(section_memblock_limit);
        }
