cmd->query_cmd can never be null in cxl_cmd_alloc_send().  The only call chain
is:

        cxl_cmd_do_query(cmd);
        cxl_cmd_validate(cmd, cmd_id);
        cxl_cmd_alloc_send(cmd, cmd_id);

And cxl_cmd_do_query() ensures it is non-null.  In addition the local variable
query is already dereferenced by the time it is checked for null.

Remove the unneeded null check.

Minor fix I found while working on the kernel side query command.
