powerpc/rtas: Allow ibm,platform-dump RTAS call with null buffer address
commit 7bc08056a6dabc3a1442216daf527edf61ac24b6 upstream. Add a special case to block_rtas_call() to allow the ibm,platform-dump RTAS call through the RTAS filter if the buffer address is 0. According to PAPR, ibm,platform-dump is called with a null buffer address to notify the platform firmware that processing of a particular dump is finished. Without this, on a pseries machine with CONFIG_PPC_RTAS_FILTER enabled, an application such as rtas_errd that is attempting to retrieve a dump will encounter an error at the end of the retrieval process.
