The reason is that a zero bytes message received from target, and the
host side continues to process without length checking, then the
previous CQE is processed twice.

Handle data length, ignore zero bytes message, and try to recovery for
corrupted CQE case.

!wc->byte_len and wc->byte_len < len may be the same type of anomaly.
Why do different error handling?
In which scenario zero bytes message received from target? fault inject test or normal test/run?

Zero bytes message could be used as transport layer keep alive mechanism (I's also developing target side transport layer keep alive now. To reclaim resource, target side needs to close dead connections even kato is set as 0).
nvme over fabric protocol do not define this.
May be async event is a option for target keep alive(if kato set as 0).
