KS8851: NULL pointer dereference if list is empty
Fix NULL pointer dereference in ks8851_tx_work by checking if dequeued
list is already empty before writing the packet to TX FIFO
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000050
PC is at ks8851_tx_work+0xdc/0x1b0
LR is at wait_for_common+0x148/0x164
pc : [<c01c0df4>] lr : [<c025a980>] psr: 20000013
