driver core: fix driver_set_override() issue with empty strings

commit 5666a27 upstream.

Python likes to send an empty string for some sysfs files, including the
driver_override field.  When commit 23d99ba ("PCI: Use
driver_set_override() instead of open-coding") moved the PCI core to use
the driver core function instead of hand-rolling their own handler, this
showed up as a regression from some userspace tools, like DPDK.

Fix this up by actually looking at the length of the string first
instead of trusting that userspace got it correct.
