SLUB: allocate smallest object size if the user asks for 0 bytes
Makes SLUB behave like SLAB in this area to avoid issues.... Throw a stack dump to alert people. At some point the behavior should be switched back. NULL is no memory as far as I can tell and if the use asked for 0 bytes then he need to get no memory.
