b723119385 brcm63xx: replace nvram_buf with a properly initialized array
Use an empty nvram_header to tell wl that there is no nvram buf.
wl else might try to allocate huge amount of memory because the
bcm63xx's nvram does not match the expected structure and contains
random values.

Fixes the following warning on load of wl:
