commit 16b036af31e1456cb69243a5a0c9ef801ecd1f17 upstream.
If the image size would ever read as 0, pci_get_rom_size() could keep
processing the same image over and over again. Exit the loop if we ever
read a length of zero.
This fixes a soft lockup on boot when the radeon driver calls
pci_get_rom_size() on an AMD Radeon R7 250X PCIe discrete graphics card.
