OK. Let's add the following two lines to make sure that msg_buf is only
sent when the msgs len is not zero. And backend judges whether it is
a zero-length request by checking the number of elements received.

  + if (msgs[i].len) {
            reqs[i].buf = i2c_get_dma_safe_msg_buf(&msgs[i], 1);
            if (!reqs[i].buf)
                    break;

           sg_init_one(&msg_buf, reqs[i].buf, msgs[i].len);

           if (msgs[i].flags & I2C_M_RD)
                   sgs[outcnt + incnt++] = &msg_buf;
           else
                   sgs[outcnt++] = &msg_buf;
+}
