Jason Wang f83c85ee73 vhost: allow batching hint without size
commit 95932ab2ea07b79cdb33121e2f40ccda9e6a73b5 upstream.

Commit e2ae38cf3d91 ("vhost: fix hung thread due to erroneous iotlb
entries") tries to reject the IOTLB message whose size is zero. But
the size is not necessarily meaningful, one example is the batching
hint, so the commit breaks that.

Fixing this be reject zero size message only if the message is used to
update/invalidate the IOTLB.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
