Subject: [PATCH] tty: check name length in tty_find_polling_driver()

From: Miles Chen <miles.chen@...iatek.com>

The issue is found by a fuzzing test.
If tty_find_polling_driver() recevies an incorrect input such as
',,' or '0b', the len becomes 0 and strncmp() always return 0.
In this case, a null p->ops->poll_init() is called and it causes a kernel
panic.

Fix this by checking name length against zero in tty_find_polling_driver().
