Subject: [PATCH 11/14] IB/uverbs: fix gcc-7 type warning

When using ccache, we get a harmless warning about the fact that
we use the result of a multiplication as a condition:

drivers/infiniband/core/uverbs_main.c: In function 'ib_uverbs_write':
drivers/infiniband/core/uverbs_main.c:787:40: error: '*' in boolean context, suggest '&&' instead [-Werror=int-in-bool-context]
drivers/infiniband/core/uverbs_main.c:787:117: error: '*' in boolean context, suggest '&&' instead [-Werror=int-in-bool-context]
drivers/infiniband/core/uverbs_main.c:790:50: error: '*' in boolean context, suggest '&&' instead [-Werror=int-in-bool-context]
drivers/infiniband/core/uverbs_main.c:790:151: error: '*' in boolean context, suggest '&&' instead [-Werror=int-in-bool-context]

This changes the macro to explicitly check the number for a positive
length, which avoids the warning.

Fixes: a96e4e2ffe43 ("IB/uverbs: New macro to set pointers to NULL if length is 0 in INIT_UDATA()")
