[Why]
The fault injection code may have a buffer underflow, which may cause
memory corruption by writing a newline character before the base address of
the array. This can happen if the fault->opcodes bitmap is empty.

Since a file in debugfs is created with an empty bitmap, it is possible to
read the file before any set bits are written to it.

[How]
Fix this by checking that the size variable is greater than zero, otherwise
return zero as the number of bytes read.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with Svace.
