I don't know if that can happen, but if the block has length 0 (that is,
only consists of a single byte that is read as 0) the is_msglast() test
returns 0 which might be wrong. Maybe even if it cannot regularily
happen handle it in a sane way?

Also I wonder if error checking for byte > I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_MAX would be
needed to prevent a buffer overrun?

Best regards
Uwe
