    zero_info_block: skip seed devices
    
    Currently, ndctl destroy-namespace -f all will output errors of the
    form:
    
      Error: destroy namespace: namespace0.0 failed to enable for zeroing, continuing
    
    for any zero-sized namespace.  That particular namespace looks like this:
    
      {
        "dev":"namespace0.0",
        "mode":"raw",
        "size":0,
        "uuid":"00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000",
        "sector_size":512,
        "state":"disabled"
      }
    
    This patch skips over namespaces with size=0 when zeroing out info
    blocks.
