The process_sysctl_arg() does not check whether val is empty before
invoking strlen(val). If the command line parameter () is incorrectly
configured and val is empty, oops is triggered.
For example:
"hung_task_panic=1" is incorrectly written as "hung_task_panic", oops is
triggered. The call stack is as follows:
Kernel command line: .... hung_task_panic
......
Call trace:
__pi_strlen+0x10/0x98
parse_args+0x278/0x344
do_sysctl_args+0x8c/0xfc
kernel_init+0x5c/0xf4
ret_from_fork+0x10/0x30
To fix it, check whether "val" is empty when "phram" is a sysctl field.
Error codes are returned in the failure branch, and error logs are
generated by parse_args().
