If a "0" alignment is passed, the allocator round_up() call incorrectly rounds up the size to 0. round_up(num, alignto) => ((num - 1) | (alignto -1)) + 1 While the obvious allocation failure causes kernel to panic, it is better to BUG_ON() if effective size for allocation (as passed by caller and/or computed after alignemtn rounding) is zero.
