[PATCH 2/2] netfs: Fix missing zero-length check in unbuffered write

[David Howells]

Fix netfs_unbuffered_write_iter() to return immediately if
generic_write_checks() returns 0, indicating there's nothing to write.
Note that netfs_file_write_iter() already does this.

Also, whilst we're at it, put in checks for the size being zero before we
even take the locks.  Note that generic_write_checks() can still reduce the
size to zero, so we still need that check.

Without this, a warning similar to the following is logged to dmesg:

	netfs: Zero-sized write [R=1b6da]

and the syscall fails with EIO, e.g.:

	/sbin/ldconfig.real: Writing of cache extension data failed: Input/output error

This can be reproduced on 9p by:

	xfs_io -f -c 'pwrite 0 0' /xfstest.test/foo
