Yes, we can support it by removing this check and call it zero-length 
request.
It don't think it will break anything.

OK. I will remove this print.

I will remove the check of  zero-length message.

I find the I2C core will set a device name "i2c-%d" for this purpose, right?

I think this name can be used to distinguish the adapter types while 
"i2c-%d" can be used to

distinguish instances. Does it make sense ?

Ah... I didn't know the I2C core had already set a default value.
I will remove this line to use the default one.

Yes. It seems unnecessary. Will remove it.

That's better. Thank you.
