slab: Remove special-casing of const 0 size allocations
Passing a constant-0 size allocation into kmalloc() or kmalloc_node() does not need to be a fast-path operation, so the static return value can be removed entirely. This makes sure that all paths through the inlines result in a full extern function call, where __alloc_size() hints will actually be seen[1] by GCC. (A constant return value of 0 means the "0" allocation size won't be propagated by the inline.)
