regmap: fix kernel hang on regmap_bulk_write with zero val_count.
Fixes commit 2f06fa04cf35da5c24481da3ac84a2900d0b99c3 which was an incorrect backported version of commit d6b41cb06044a7d895db82bdd54f6e4219970510 upstream. If val_count is zero we return -EINVAL with map->lock_arg locked, which will deadlock the kernel next time we try to acquire this lock. This was introduced by f5942dd ("regmap: fix possible ZERO_SIZE_PTR pointer dereferencing error.") which improperly back-ported d6b41cb0. This issue was found during review of Ubuntu Trusty 3.13.0-40.68 kernel to prepare Ksplice rebootless updates. Fixes: f5942dd ("regmap: fix possible ZERO_SIZE_PTR pointer dereferencing error.")
