mm: make vb_alloc() more foolproof

If someone calls vb_alloc() (or vm_map_ram() for that matter) to allocate
0 bytes (0 pages), get_order() returns BITS_PER_LONG - PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT
and interesting stuff happens.  So make debugging such problems easier and
warn about 0-size allocation.

[akpm@linux-foundation.org: use WARN_ON-return-value feature]
