Calling tls_append_frag when max_open_record_len == record->len might
add an empty fragment to the TLS record if the call happens to be on the
page boundary. Normally tls_append_frag coalesces the zero-sized
fragment to the previous one, but not if it's on page boundary.
If a resync happens then, the mlx5 driver posts dump WQEs in
tx_post_resync_dump, and the empty fragment may become a data segment
with byte_count == 0, which will confuse the NIC and lead to a CQE
error.
This commit fixes the described issue by skipping tls_append_frag on
zero size to avoid adding empty fragments. The fix is not in the driver,
because an empty fragment is hardly the desired behavior.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
