Define ZERO_OR_NULL_PTR macro to be able to remove the checks

Make ZERO_SIZE_PTR work for all slab allocators and get rid of the
WARN_ON_ONCE(size == 0) that is still remaining in SLAB.

Make slub return NULL like the other allocators if a too large
memory segment is requested via __kmalloc.

Looks good to me.
