acpi, nfit, libnvdimm: fix / harden ars_status output length handling
Given ambiguities in the ACPI 6.1 definition of the "Output (Size)"
field of the ARS (Address Range Scrub) Status command, a firmware
implementation may in practice return 0, 4, or 8 to indicate that there
is no output payload to process.
The specification states "Size of Output Buffer in bytes, including this
field.". However, 'Output Buffer' is also the name of the entire
payload, and earlier in the specification it states "Max Query ARS
Status Output Buffer Size: Maximum size of buffer (including the Status
and Extended Status fields)".
Without this fix if the BIOS happens to return 0 it causes memory
corruption as evidenced by this result from the acpi_nfit_ctl() unit
test.
