ieee1275: prevent buffer over-read

Browse source 
Prevent buffer over-read in grub_machine_mmap_iterate. This was
causing phys_base from being calculated properly. This then
caused the wrong value to be placed in ramdisk_image within
struct linux_hdrs. Which prevented the ramdisk from loading on
boot.

Newer SPARC systems contain more than 8 available memory entries.

For example on a T5-8 with 2TB of memory, the memory layout could
look like this:
