Subject: [PATCH 5.5 086/150] sched/psi: Fix OOB write when writing 0 bytes to PSI files

From: Suren Baghdasaryan <surenb@...gle.com>

commit 6fcca0fa48118e6d63733eb4644c6cd880c15b8f upstream.

Issuing write() with count parameter set to 0 on any file under
/proc/pressure/ will cause an OOB write because of the access to
buf[buf_size-1] when NUL-termination is performed. Fix this by checking
for buf_size to be non-zero.
