__ieee80211_rx_handle_packet keeps a pointer to the previous sdata to
avoid having to make unnecessary copies of the frame it's handling.
This led to a bug that caused it to apply the ieee80211_rx_data state
to the wrong interface, thereby either missing the rx.sta pointer or
having it assigned where it shouldn't be.
This breaks (among other things) aggregation on some vifs, as action
frame exchages are dropped to the cooked monitor interface due to
rx->sta being NULL.
Fix this by restructuring the loop so that it prepares the rx data just
before making the skb copy and calling the rx handlers.

lower the rate when necessary.  The debug log shows:

My interpretation is that the fixed point scaling of the target
error value (pf) is incorrect: the error value of 50 compared to
a target of 14 case should result in a scaling value of
(14-50) = -36 * 256 or -9216, but instead it is (14 * 256)-50, or

Correct this by doing fixed point scaling after subtraction.

as much as possible leaving some TODOs for not implemented functions.

the AP is not operating on and if they were to do so they would have
to use the regulatory extension which we currently do not process.
No AP has been seen in practice that does this though so just drop
those country IEs.

Additionally it has been noted the first series of country IE
channels triplets are specific to the band the AP sends. Propagate
the band on which the country IE was found on reject the country
IE then if the triplets are ever oustide of the band.

Although we now won't process country IE information with multiple

technically possible for someone to want to eventually process these
