This patch optimizes the commit mentioned below by avoiding running
a set of commands which are useless in the case when
size < mydata->sect_size and sect_count would be 0.

Fixes: 5b3ddb17ba ("fs/fat/fat.c: Do not perform zero block reads if there are no blocks left")

Changes in v2:
- rename the variable idx to sect_count;
- add bytes_read variable, making the code more readable.
