Reading the rsvd_page debugfs entry before writing a page offset and
count to it calls vzalloc() with a size of zero, because
rsvd_page.page_num defaults to 0. vmalloc warns about this:
WARNING: mm/vmalloc.c:4019 at __vmalloc_node_range_noprof+0x9ac/0xa30
...
Call Trace:
__vmalloc_node_noprof+0x4c/0x70

seq_read+0x12e/0x1c0
full_proxy_read+0x6f/0xc0
vfs_read+0xdd/0x490
rtw_fw_dump_fifo() would reject the zero size anyway, but only after
the allocation. Check for a zero buffer size first and print a short
usage hint instead of allocating.

v2: no code change. Add the wireless target tree to the subject and Cc
the maintainers/blamed authors that v1 missed.

Actually, target tree of Realtek Wifi driver should be rtw-next or rtw.

No need. Just FYI.
