Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/mlx5e: Fix AF_XDP TX timestamp teardown NULL dereference During XSK TX queue teardown, outstanding descriptors are completed without a CQE.

Return zero when no CQE is available, indicating that teardown did not produce a TX timestamp.
