'Does usb support control (IN) transfer with wLength = 0?

Recently, I'm learning usb protocol with libusb and linux gadget (g_zero). When I do the following control transfer, the usb device just stucks.

libusb_control_transfer(devh
  0xC0, // bRequestType (IN, device to host)
  0x5C, // bRequest
  0x0000, // wValue
  0x0000, // wIndex
  NULL, // buffer
  0, // buffer length
  1000 // timeout
)

I also use a usb analyzer to monitor the usb packets, it show as follow:

Setup Stage:
    SETUP Packet
    DATA0 Packet: c0 5c 00 00 00 00 00 00
    ACK Packet
Data Stage:
    nothing here, then follow immediately with
Status Stage:
    OUT Packet
    DATA1 Packet (length: 0)
    NAK Packet 
PING Packet // then PING Packet infinitely

After that, I search the usb 2.0 specification and found (in ch 8.5.3) that the specification describes only three type of control transfer:

             Setup                      Data                      Status
             Stage                      Stage                     Stage
            /---------\  /------------------------------------\  /-------\
Control     <Setup (0)>  <Out (1)>  <Out (0)>  ...  <Out (0/1)>  <In  (1)>
Write           DATA0      DATA1      DATA0           DATA0/1      DATA1

Control     <Setup (0)>  <In  (1)>  <In  (0)>  ...  <In  (0/1)>  <Out (1)>
Read            DATA0      DATA1      DATA0           DATA0/1      DATA1

             Setup        Status
             Stage        Stage
            /---------\  /-------\
No-Data     <Setup (0)>  <IN  (1)>
Control         DATA0      DATA1

So I guess maybe usb doesn't support Ctrl-IN-0 transfer?
