When checking iov_iter_alignment_iovec for valid read and the iovec is empty,
the function still tries to iterate non-existant values. In this case, the iov
variable is empty and attempting to use iov->iov_len causes a kernel crash.

This patch fixes this by checking the size of the iovec before iterating.
