staging: axis-fifo: Remove unnecessary zero-length packet check
Remove the check for zero-length packets as this condition cannot occur during normal operation. According to the Xilinx AXI4-Stream FIFO Product Guide (PG080), in the Receive Length Register (RLR) description: "The smallest packet that can be received is 1 byte." A zero-length packet would indicate a bug in the IP core itself.
