When the master bridge receives a read request with the Length = 0x1, FirstBE = 0x00, and LastBE = 0x00, it responds by sending a completion with Status = Successful Completion. When the master bridge receives a write request with the Length = 0x1, FirstBE = 0x00, and LastBE = 0x00 there is no effect.
