s390/debug: Reject zero-length input before trimming a newline
debug_get_user_string() duplicates the userspace buffer with memdup_user_nul() and then unconditionally looks at buffer[user_len - 1] to strip a trailing newline. A zero-length write reaches this helper unchanged, so the newline trim reads before the start of the allocated buffer. Reject empty writes before accessing the last input byte.
