apply_to_page_range gets zero length resulting in triggering :

  BUG_ON(addr >= end)

This is regression and a consequence of changes in module section handling.

Fix by making arm and arm64 check for zero size update in change_memory_common(),
letting set_memory_xx(addr, 0); succeed. This makes behavior similar to x86.

Also, BUG_ON() in apply_to_page_range is too strong, make it WARN_ON()
and return -EINVAL instead. There may be other caller expecting !size
to succeed.

v2:
  - drop patch 1/4 for the bounds check, it has been submitted before
  - merge arm/arm64 changes into one patch

--Mika

[PATCH 1/2] arm, arm64: change_memory_common with numpages == 0 should be no-op.
[PATCH 2/2] make apply_to_page_range() more robust.
