Subject: [PATCH] staging/lustre/lnet: Don't call roundup_pow_of_two on zero in LNetEQAlloc

From: Oleg Drokin <green@...uxhacker.ru>

roundup_pow_of_two return when called on a zero argument is
undefined, so don't call it like that.

This fixes a problem introduced by commit 322489d9d551
("staging/lustre: Use roundup_pow_of_two() in LNetEQAlloc()")
since 0 is a valid count parameter for LNetEQAlloc. Also manifesting
itself as an annoying kernel warning:
LNet: 3486:0:(lib-eq.c:85:LNetEQAlloc()) EQ callback is guaranteed to get every event, do you still want to set eqcount 1 for polling event which will have locking overhead? Please contact with developer to confirm
