  987053a ("efi/x86: Move command-line initrd loading to efi_main")

moved the command-line initrd loading into efi_main(), with a check
to ensure that it was attempted only if the EFI stub was booted via
efi_pe_entry rather than the EFI handover entry.

However, in the case where it was booted via handover entry, and thus an
initrd may have already been loaded by the bootloader, it then wrote 0
for the initrd address and size, removing any existing initrd.

Fix this by checking if size is positive before setting the fields in
the bootparams structure.
