urllib3: Getting exception in _update_chunk_length

Hi, While requesting a particular URL, I came across this error

File "/root/shivam/python3_env/lib/python3.5/site-packages/urllib3/response.py", line 601, in _update_chunk_length
    self.chunk_left = int(line, 16)
ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 16: b''

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last):

This was reported in requests module here

I fixed it as -

def _update_chunk_length(self):
    # First, we'll figure out length of a chunk and then
    # we'll try to read it from socket.
    if self.chunk_left is not None:
        return
    line = self._fp.fp.readline()
    line = line.split(b';', 1)[0]
    try:
        if len(line) == 0:
            self.chunk_left = 0
        else:
            self.chunk_left = int(line, 16)
    except ValueError:
        # Invalid chunked protocol response, abort.
        self.close()
        raise httplib.IncompleteRead(line)

or a one liner as

    def _update_chunk_length(self):
        # First, we'll figure out length of a chunk and then
        # we'll try to read it from socket.
        if self.chunk_left is not None:
            return
        line = self._fp.fp.readline()
        line = line.split(b';', 1)[0]
        line = (len(line)>0 and line or "0")     # added this line
        try:
            self.chunk_left = int(line, 16)
        except ValueError:
            # Invalid chunked protocol response, abort.
            self.close()
            raise httplib.IncompleteRead(line)

Is it worth giving a PR regarding this??
