tipc_sendstream() may send zero length packet, then tipc_msg_append()
do not alloc skb, skb_peek_tail() will get NULL, msg_set_ack_required
will trigger NULL pointer dereference.

I spent some time reading this a few times and the Fixes: commit and
this change looks ok to me so I'm just going to apply this.

Thanks.
