If a block size percentage is ispecified as 0 in bssplit, the block size defined is not ignored by the loop in get_next_buflen(). In particular, if the first (smallest) block size specified has a 0 percentage, the loop is existed and that block size used as the next IO size, resulting in a behavior equivalent to specifying 100%. E.g. using --bssplit=64k/0,1024k/100 results in 100% of issued IOs to be 64KB instead of 1MB. Fix this by ignoring bssplit entries that have a 0 percentage. This is safe as the initialization of the bssplit array ensure that the sum of all percentages is always 100, guaranteeing that a block size will be chosen for the next IO size.
