mac80211: fix tx select key null pointer crash with hostapd

Pavel Roskin reported a crash in ieee80211_tx_h_select_key():

http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=126419655108528&w=2

This is a regression from patch "mac80211: move control.hw_key assignment".
Fix it as suggested by Johannes, adding an else statement to make sure
that tx->key is not accessed when it's null.

Compile-tested only.
