Zero-length skcipher requests are valid no-ops, but MXS-DCP queues them.
Any document show it? if return 0 when cryptelen, it is async, no
call crypto_request_complete.

When such a request reaches the worker, last_out_len remains zero. The
CBC completion path then subtracts AES_BLOCK_SIZE from this unsigned
value when updating the IV, causing the offset to underflow. On
decryption, the resulting source address precedes aes_in_buf.

Return success before enqueueing zero-length requests. This avoids the
invalid source access and leaves the IV unchanged for a no-op.
