Currently when using PBLK with 0 sized metadata both ppa list
and meta list points to the same memory since pblk_dma_meta_size()
returns 0 in that case.
This commit fix that issue by ensuring that pblk_dma_meta_size()
always returns space equal to sizeof(struct pblk_sec_meta) and thus
ppa list and meta list points to different memory address.
Even that in that case drive does not really care about meta_list
pointer, this is the easiest way to fix that issue without introducing
changes in many places in the code just for 0 sized metadata case.
