Johannes Berg 51129a2ca0 wifi: mac80211: always allow transmitting null-data on TXQs
Jouni reported that certain sequences of tests caused some
WDS tests to fail after applying the upcoming hwsim changes
for NAN. I bisected that down to converting hwsim to TXQs,
and after a long debug session found that the 4-addr NDP was
getting dropped, because it goes out via a (management) TXQ
and is a data frame.

It's unclear to me now why this only happens in some test
sequences (e.g. "sigma_dut_sae_h2e_ap_loop ap_wds_sta" and
"sigma_dut_eap_ttls_all_akm_suites ap_wds_sta_open"), maybe
that affects timing and the frame is otherwise delayed in
some way.

Correct the check to only drop frames that actually carry
data, not NDPs.
