Christoph Lameter 272c1d21d6 SLUB: return ZERO_SIZE_PTR for kmalloc(0)
Instead of returning the smallest available object return ZERO_SIZE_PTR.

A ZERO_SIZE_PTR can be legitimately used as an object pointer as long as it
is not deferenced.  The dereference of ZERO_SIZE_PTR causes a distinctive
fault.  kfree can handle a ZERO_SIZE_PTR in the same way as NULL.

This enables functions to use zero sized object. e.g. n = number of objects.

	objects = kmalloc(n * sizeof(object));

	for (i = 0; i < n; i++)
		objects[i].x = y;

	kfree(objects);
