A common method of probing an i2c bus is trying to do a zero-length write. Handle this case by checking the length first before decrementing it. This is actually important, since attempting a zero-length write is one of the ways that i2cdetect and i2c_new_probed_device detect whether there is device present on the bus with a given address.
