* [PATCH] common: bootm: only use initrd override if non-empty

From: Chali Anis <chalianis1@gmail.com>

OSTree integration in Yocto generates an empty initramfs
file and references it in the boot configuration (under
/boot/loader/ostree-1.conf) to suppress init= kernel arguments.
This caused Barebox to always prefer the override, even when
the initramfs was empty, preventing booting of FIT images
that already contain an embedded initramfs.
