resources: handle overflow when aligning start of available area
If tmp.start is near ~0, ALIGN(tmp.start) may overflow, which would make us think there's more available space than there really is. We would likely return something that conflicts with a previous resource, which would cause a failure when allocate_resource() requests the newly- allocated region.
