ath9k: fix rate control tx status handling for A-MPDU

Currently the rate control tx status update gets called for every
subframe of an A-MPDU, and ath9k marks the frame with the relevant
status update with an internal flag. This not suitable for rate control
algorithms using the standard mac80211 rate control API, so fix this by
using IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU for marking the correct frames that
should be processed.

padding on RX (and expect the same padding to be present on TX) at the

- control    : 24 + 6 if 4-addr format
- data       : 24 + 6 if 4-addr format + 2 if QoS
- invalid    : 24 + 6 if 4-addr format

whereas ieee80211_get_hdrlen_from_skb() is :

- management : 24
- control    : 16 except for ACK/CTS where it is 10
- data       : 24 + 6 if 4-addr format + 2 if QoS + 2 if QoS & order
- invalid    : 24

So, correct frames are not affected : management frames do not use
4-addr format, control frames have no body and invalid frames are ...
not valid by definition. However, in order to use monitor interface for
debugging purpose, one must be able to send/receive any frames, be it
correct or not. Such frames are affected by incorrect padding.

Moreover, since padding is added on TX, we need to remove it before
calling ieee80211_tx_status. This affect TX packets received by monitor
interfaces.

It has been tested between an ath5k based card (AR5212) and an ar9170usb
based card (netgear WNDA3100) using a frame generator and a monitor

is the identity mapping right now, but with
the mapping function I think it's easier to

instead of acking all the frames separately. This will reduce the amount of

those will only be supported by new firmware images.

asynchronously from probe, unbinding the device when
firmware loading fails, and only registering with the
wireless subsystems after firmware has been loaded
