Some PCIE firmwares drop txstatus if pktid is 0 and make packet held in

waiting for no pending 802.1x packets" error message when sending key to
dongle.
To be compatible with all firmwares, host should allocate msgbuf pktid
from 1 instead of from 0.
looking at it we are wasting entry 0 with this patch. Could we avoid that?
