Subject: [PATCH 11/25] dynamic_debug: early return if _ddebug table is empty

From: Jim Cromie <jim.cromie@...il.com>

Iif _ddebug table is empty (in a CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG build this
shouldn't happen), then warn (error?) and return early.  This skips
empty table scan and parsing of setup-string, including the pr_info
call noting the parse.  By inspection, copy return-code handling from
1st ddebug_add_module() callsite to 2nd.
