If we send zero-length data to stm32_qspi_tx_poll() on older
compiler versions such as gcc-4.6, we get warned that the
return code is uninitialized:

drivers/mtd/spi-nor/stm32-quadspi.c:248:2: error: ‘ret’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=uninitialized]

On newer compiler versions, the return code is always zero
in this case, as the local variable gets optimized away and
is assumed to be zero after the loop completes without error.

This changes the function to instead return -EINVAL if it
ever gets called with a zero length buffer.
