mm/vmalloc: fix return value of vb_alloc if size is 0

vm_map_ram() uses IS_ERR() to validate the return value of vb_alloc().  If
vm_map_ram(page, 0, 0) is executed, vb_alloc(0, GFP_KERNEL) would return
NULL.  In such a case, IS_ERR() cannot handle the return value and lead to
kernel panic by vmap_pages_range_noflush() at last.  To resolve this
issue, return ERR_PTR(-EINVAL) if the size is 0.
