A 0-length ACL continuation-fragment is a valid NULL packet. Remote
devices can use the FLOW indicator in the ACL packet header to
flow-control ACL packets without sending a payload.
Track as a connection stat instead of logging.
---
v2 ensure the fragment is 0-length
v3 use new hci_conn.stats rather than hci_dev.stat
