ath9k: Remove MAC header pad before reporting TX status
Remove the possible MAC header pad before reporting TX status to mac80211. This pad is hardware specific operation and should not be exposed outside the driver. This fixes the frame body in monitor interfaces that could be used to check on TX status for transmitted frames. Signed-off-by: Jouni Malinen <jouni.malinen@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
