lockdep: Fix block chain corruption

Kent reported an occasional KASAN splat in lockdep. Mark then noted:

That would mean @size == 0, at which point size_to_bucket() returns -1
and the above happens.

alloc_chain_hlocks() has 'size - req', for the first with the
precondition 'size >= rq', which allows the 0.

This code is trying to split a block, del_chain_block() takes what we
need, and add_chain_block() puts back the remainder, except in the
above case the remainder is 0 sized and things go sideways.
