It is simply not needed.  This field is equivalent to skb being NULL.

Currently with the boolean set to true we call:
  ncm->netdev->netdev_ops->ndo_start_xmit(NULL, ncm->netdev);
which calls u_ether's:
  eth_start_xmit(NULL, ...)
which then calls:
  skb = dev->wrap(dev->port_usb, NULL);
which calls back into f_ncm's:
  ncm_wrap_ntb(..., NULL)
