Changed passing argument as "0 to NULL" which resolves below sparse warning

Nit: For future reference, wrapping the warning text with quotes in the
     shortlog would be helpful.  I initially read it as "fix a warning by
     using a plain integer as a NULL pointer".  E.g.:

     KVM: x86: fix warning "Using plain integer as NULL pointer"

Nit: Use imperative mood to state what the patch does, as opposed to
     talking about the change in the past tense.  That allows using past
     tense to describe things that actually did happen in the past.  E.g.:

     Pass "NULL" instead of "0" for a pointer argument when querying
     KVM_CAP_NESTED_STATE to resolve the below sparse warning:
