ath9k: detect more kinds of invalid descriptors
If AR_CRCErr, AR_PHYErr, AR_DecryptCRCErr or AR_MichaelErr is indicated in the rx status word, but AR_RxFrameOK is also set, the descriptor contents are typically invalid. This can show up as a warning about invalid MCS rates in a frame. Even with those checks in place, a descriptor with invalid MCS rates can still sometimes make it through to the driver (mostly on older hardware like AR91xx). Detect such errors in the last descriptor of a frame and discard the whole frame if present. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
