Code Sample, a copy-pastable example if possible

>>> import pandas as pd
>>> import numpy as np
>>> pd.Series([np.nan]).asof([0])
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<ipython-input-268-2b0f8084a393>", line 1, in <module>
    pd.Series([np.nan]).asof([0])
  File "~/anaconda3/lib/python3.5/site-packages/pandas/core/generic.py", line 3985, in asof
    locs = self.index.asof_locs(where, ~(nulls.values))
  File "~/anaconda3/lib/python3.5/site-packages/pandas/indexes/base.py", line 1837, in asof_locs
    result = np.arange(len(self))[mask].take(locs)
IndexError: cannot do a non-empty take from an empty axes.
