Pending commit in -next "devres: handle zero size in devm_kmalloc()"
triggers a boot regression due to the ARS implementation expecting NULL
from a zero-sized allocation. Avoid the zero-sized allocation by
skipping ARS, otherwise crashes with the following signature when
de-referencing ZERO_SIZE_PTR.
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000018
#PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode
#PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page
RIP: 0010:__acpi_nfit_scrub+0x28a/0x350 [nfit]
[..]
Call Trace:
? acpi_nfit_query_poison+0x6a/0x180 [nfit]
acpi_nfit_scrub+0x36/0xb0 [nfit]
process_one_work+0x23c/0x580
worker_thread+0x50/0x3b0
Otherwise the implementation correctly aborts when NULL is returned from
devm_kzalloc() in ars_status_alloc().
