x86/intel_rdt: Fix a silent failure when writing zero value schemata

Writing an invalid schemata with no domain values (e.g., "(L3|MB):"),
results in a silent failure, i.e. the last_cmd_status returns OK,

Check for an empty value and set the result string with a proper error
message and return -EINVAL.

Before the fix:
 # mkdir /sys/fs/resctrl/p1

 # echo "L3:" > /sys/fs/resctrl/p1/schemata
 (silent failure)
 # cat /sys/fs/resctrl/info/last_cmd_status
 ok

 # echo "MB:" > /sys/fs/resctrl/p1/schemata
 (silent failure)
 # cat /sys/fs/resctrl/info/last_cmd_status
 ok

After the fix:
 # mkdir /sys/fs/resctrl/p1

 # echo "L3:" > /sys/fs/resctrl/p1/schemata
 -bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
 # cat /sys/fs/resctrl/info/last_cmd_status
 Missing 'L3' value

 # echo "MB:" > /sys/fs/resctrl/p1/schemata
 -bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
 # cat /sys/fs/resctrl/info/last_cmd_status
 Missing 'MB' value

[ Tony: This is an unintended side effect of the patch earlier to allow the
    	user to just write the value they want to change.  While allowing
    	user to specify less than all of the values, it also allows an
    	empty value. ]
