Subject: [PATCH] Properly support MMC_IOC_CMD operations without a data payload

Some MMC/SD host controllers require the "data" member of
"struct mmc_request" to be NULL when the command has no data attached.
Change the MMC ioctl method to not initialize the "data" member when
the supplied data size (blksz * blocks) is zero.
