x86/pv-shim: correctly ignore empty onlining requests

Mem-op requests may have zero extents. Such requests need treating as
no-ops. pv_shim_online_memory(), however, would have tried to take 2³²-1
order-sized pages from its balloon list (to then populate them),
typically ending when the entire set of ballooned pages of this order
was consumed.

Note that pv_shim_offline_memory() does not have such an issue.
