ata: ahci: fix zero-length DMA handling
Commands without a data buffer must not trigger DMA setup. The previous
code unconditionally programmed PRDT entries and attempted DMA mapping
even when buf_len was zero, leading to invalid PRD tables and spurious
DMA operations.
This patch ensures that DMA mapping, PRDT setup and unmapping are only
performed when buf_len > 0.
