Yes, the label size has a limit, but in NVDIMM_DSM_Interface_Example.pdf
section 4.5.1
When the guest get namespace label data, the 'Length' is not limited, if it
is 0, it will trigger
this assert.

static void nvdimm_validate_rw_label_data(NVDIMMDevice *nvdimm, uint64_t
size,
                                        uint64_t offset)
{
    assert((nvdimm->label_size >= size + offset) && (offset + size >
offset));
}

Though I don't know what the exact behavior of this action in real
hardware. I just think it should not
trigger assert and exit when the guest get 0-size label data.

Anyway, this is just a suggestion, If my understand is wrong, just ignore
this.

Thanks.
