[PATCH 3.17 084/122] target: Dont call TFO->write_pending if data_length == 0

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

3.17-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Roland Dreier <roland@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 885e7b0e181c14e4d0ddd26c688bad2b84c1ada9 upstream.

If an initiator sends a zero-length command (e.g. TEST UNIT READY) but
sets the transfer direction in the transport layer to indicate a
data-out phase, we still shouldn't try to transfer data.  At best it's
a NOP, and depending on the transport, we might crash on an
uninitialized sg list.
