Subject: ASoC: skl: Fix kernel warning due to zero NHTL entry

From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>

commit 20a1ea2222e7cbf96e9bf8579362e971491e6aea upstream.

I got the following kernel warning when loading snd-soc-skl module on
Dell Latitude 7270 laptop:
 memremap attempted on mixed range 0x0000000000000000 size: 0x0
 WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 484 at kernel/memremap.c:98 memremap+0x8a/0x180
 Call Trace:
  skl_nhlt_init+0x82/0xf0 [snd_soc_skl]
  skl_probe+0x2ee/0x7c0 [snd_soc_skl]
  ....

It seems that the machine doesn't support the SKL DSP gives the empty
NHLT entry, and it triggers the warning.  For avoiding it, let do the
zero check before calling memremap().
