[PATCH 3/7] maccess: Skip setup for zero-sized kernel nofault copies

A zero-sized kernel nofault copy does not enter an access loop, but it
still disables and re-enables page faults.

Zero sizes are valid. BPF probe-read helpers accept them, and KGDB memory
packets may carry a zero length.

Return before changing page-fault state when there is nothing to copy.
For reads, keep architecture-specific address validation before the fast
path so its behavior is unchanged.
