powerpc: Fix corruption error in rh_alloc_fixed()

There is an error in rh_alloc_fixed() of the Remote Heap code:
If there is at least one free block blk won't be NULL at the end of the
search loop, so -ENOMEM won't be returned and the else branch of
"if (bs == s || be == e)" will be taken, corrupting the management
structures.
