Smatch complains that zero length read/writes will lead to an
uninitalized return value.  I don't know if that's possible, but
it's nicer to return a zero literal anyway so let's do that.

Fixes: 88d125026753 ("mtd: devices: add support for microchip 48l640 EERAM")

People, when we add a new driver can we make sure the first commit uses
the new prefered subsystem prefix?  For example,

"mtd: mchp48l640: add support for microchip 48l640 EERAM"
      ^^^^^^^^^^
Otherwise it's not clear to me what I should use as a patch prefix.

Ok, sorry...

Hmm... Colin already sent a fix for this, see:

Yes, both patches work, but I think Dan's solution is a bit clearer, so:
