video: sh_mobile_lcdcfb: Don't attempt to map zero-length scatterlists.
More aggressive DMA mapping debugging has uncovered a long-standing buglet in the way that the sh_mobile_lcdcfb driver implements its deferred I/O callback. When used as a console driver the acceleration routines are called by the kernel which subsequently cause the deferred I/O work to be scheduled, resulting in the deferred I/O callback being entered without any dirty pages on the pagelist (the normal case for userspace accesses). It's also possible to get in to this situation via explicit calling of fsync() when nothing has dirtied the region. Unfortunately it's not sufficient to skip over the callback when the pagelist is empty given the console driver use case, so instead the callback has to conditionalize the work for panel updates and DMA mapping depending on whether anything is resident on the pagelist or not.
