tmpfs: fix mounts when size is less than the page size
When tmpfs is mounted with a size less than one page, the number of blocks is set to 0 which makes the tmpfs mount unlimited. This can lead to a quick and surprising death if someone typos a tmpfs mount command and writes too much. tmpfs can still be mounted as unlimited if size or nr_blocks is exactly 0, as Documentation/filesystems/tmpfs.txt says. Hugh: do this by rounding size up instead of down in all cases: which slightly expands other odd-sized tmpfs mounts, but in a consistent way.
