[PATCH] ARM: allow empty ATAG_CORE

[David Brown]

From: David Brown <davidb at quicinc.com>

The ATAG_CORE is allowed to be empty.  Although this is handled
by parse_tag_core(), __vet_atags during startup rejects this tag
unless it contains data.  Allow the initial tag to be either the
full size, or empty.

Currently, some configurations of the Android bootloader use an empty
ATAG_CORE.
