mwifiex: set valid tx_param during mwifiex_send_null_packet
While sending null packet from driver we are passing NULL tx_param pointer to indicate there are no more packets in queue. PCIe send routine assumes caller has done sanity check on tx_param and may cause crash while dereferencing next_pkt_len from tx_param. Avoid this by passing tx_param structure with next_pkt_len as zero instead of NULL pointer.
