3.13.11.9 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Xiubo Li <Li.Xiubo at freescale.com>
commit 6596aa047b624aeec2ea321962cfdecf9953a383 upstream.
Since we cannot make sure the 'params->num_regs' will always be none
zero here, and then if it equals to zero, the kmemdup() will return
ZERO_SIZE_PTR, which equals to ((void *)16).
So this patch fix this with just doing the zero check before calling
kmemdup().
