Dereferencing a zero-length array is always a bug, and we get a warning
with 'make W=1' here:

arch/arm/mm/dma-mapping.c: In function 'dma_contiguous_early_fixup':
arch/arm/mm/dma-mapping.c:395:15: error: array subscript <unknown> is outside array bounds of 'struct dma_contig_early_reserve[0]' [-Werror=array-bounds]

      |                                        ^~~~~~~~~~~~~
arch/arm/mm/dma-mapping.c:396:15: error: array subscript <unknown> is outside array bounds of 'struct dma_contig_early_reserve[0]' [-Werror=array-bounds]

Add a runtime check to prevent this from happening, while also
avoiding the compile-time warning.

What if dma_mmu_remap_num were negative - that condition is not checked
and will also result in an overflow of the array. If we're being fussy
enough to bounds check, we ought to do it properly.

So, I think a better solution would be to make dma_mmu_remap_num an
unsigned int, and then to use:

	if (dma_mmu_remap_num >= ARRAY_SIZE(dma_mmu_remap)) {
		...
	}

which is really the condition we're after here.

FTTP is here! 40Mbps down 10Mbps up. Decent connectivity at last!
