perf/core: Fix Undefined behaviour in rb_alloc()
Sasha reported: [ 3494.030114] UBSAN: Undefined behaviour in kernel/events/ring_buffer.c:685:22 [ 3494.030647] shift exponent -1 is negative Andrey spotted that this is because: It happens if nr_pages = 0: rb->page_order = ilog2(nr_pages); Fix it by making both assignments conditional on nr_pages; since otherwise they should both be 0 anyway, and will be because of the kzalloc() used to allocate the structure.
