4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Sudeep Holla <sudeep.holla@xxxxxxx> commit cb710ab1d8a23f68ff8f45aedf3e552bb90e70de upstream. We already check if the message is empty before calling the client tx_done callback. Calling completion on a wait event is also invalid if the message is empty. This patch moves the existing empty message check earlier.
