x86/ldt: Fix small LDT allocation for Xen

While the following commit:

  37868fe113 ("x86/ldt: Make modify_ldt synchronous")

added a nice comment explaining that Xen needs page-aligned
whole page chunks for guest descriptor tables, it then
nevertheless used kzalloc() on the small size path.

As I'm unaware of guarantees for kmalloc(PAGE_SIZE, ) to return
page-aligned memory blocks, I believe this needs to be switched
back to __get_free_page() (or better get_zeroed_page()).
