Such lines in access log are caused by opening and closing a
connection without sending any data in it. Usually this happens
due to browser optimizations (e.g., Chrome opens an additional
connection "just in case"), but might appear due to various other
reasons as well (e.g. if browser rejects your SSL cert).
As of nginx 1.3.15+ such connections are no longer logged to
access log, see http://nginx.org/en/CHANGES.
