When doing AMSDU offload, the driver (for now!) presents 802.11 frames with
the same sequence number and crypto sequence number / IV values up to the stack.
But, this will trip afoul over the sequence number detection.
So drivers now have a way to signify that a frame is part of an offloaded
AMSDU group, so we can just ensure that we pass those frames up to the
stack.
The logic will be a bit messy - the TL;DR will be that if it's part of
the previously seen sequence number then it belongs in the same burst.
But if we get a repeat of the same sequence number (eg we sent an ACK
but the receiver didn't hear it) then we shouldn't be passing those frames
up. So, we can't just say "all subframes go up", we need to track
whether we've seen the end of a burst of frames for the given sequence
number or not, so we know whether to actually pass them up or not.
The first part of doing all of this is to ensure the ieee80211_rx_stats
struct is available in the RX sequence number check path and the
RX ampdu reorder path. So, start by passing the pointer into these
functions to avoid doing another lookup.
The actual support will come in a subsequent commit once I know the
functionality actually works!
