That doesn't seem right -- it's calculating the timestamp at the end of
the frame, but you said you wanted the timestamp at the "timestamp
field" time, which is just 24 bytes into the frame.

This is a bit odd -- why should a function that's called _rx_bcn() have
to check it? Seems the check should be outside the API boundary.

I see this was already wrong ...
