Subject: [PATCH v4 11/13] HID: ft260: fix a NULL pointer dereference in ft260_i2c_write

The zero-length passed into the ft260_i2c_write() triggered the
NULL pointer dereference in the debug message on data[0] access.
Since the controller does not support a write of zero length,
let's not allow it.

Before:

$ sudo i2ctransfer -y 13 w0@...1
Killed

After:

$ sudo i2ctransfer -y 13 w0@...1
Error: Sending messages failed: Invalid argument
