mm/page_alloc: report 1 as zone_batchsize for !CONFIG_MMU

Commit 2783088ef24e ("mm/page_alloc: prevent reporting pcp->batch = 0")
moved the error handling (0-handling) of zone_batchsize from its callers
to inside the function.  However, the commit left out the error handling
for the NOMMU case, leading to deadlocks on NOMMU systems.

For NOMMU systems, return 1 instead of 0 for zone_batchsize, which
restores the previous deadlock-free behavior.

There is no functional difference expected with this patch before commit
2783088ef24e, other than the pr_debug in zone_pcp_init now printing out 1
instead of 0 for zones in NOMMU systems.  Not only is this a pr_debug, the
difference is purely semantic anyways.
