vmsplice.2: vmsplice() does not fail when nr_segs==0
...
This nr_segs==0 case is no-op; the call succeeds and no
EINVAL error is returned.
See fs/splice.c vmsplice syscall which contains:
if (unlikely(nr_segs > UIO_MAXIOV))
return -EINVAL;
else if (unlikely(!nr_segs))
return 0;
And looking at the git log suggests that the code was always thus.
