Subject: [PATCH net-next] net/tls: tls_is_tx_ready() checked list_entry

tls_is_tx_ready() checks that list_first_entry() does not return NULL.
This condition can never happen. For empty lists, list_first_entry()
returns the list_entry() of the head, which is a type confusion.
Use list_first_entry_or_null() which returns NULL in case of empty
lists.

Fixes: a42055e8d2c3 ("net/tls: Add support for async encryption of records for performance")
