Tweak region overflow check

This patch fixes a problem with region overflow checking on bss-style ALLOC but
!LOAD sections. When such sections have an explicitly set LMA, as one might
have with:
.data {...} >ram AT>rom
.bss {...} >ram AT>rom
we shouldn't test whether they overflow the LMA region, for they will occupy no
space there.
One could not override the bss section's LMA region, I suppose, but that might
be confusing. And I for one find it aesthetically unpleasing to have .data and
.bss differ in such a manner.
ok?
