No need for an empty line I suppose? I would also prefer `attention`
instead of `att_flags`, but no big deal.

I think container_of(msdu_head->data, htt_tx_desc, msdu_payload) is a
better fit here :-)

Attention flags don't contain bitmasked values so we can skip the
conversion altogether here and do __cpu_to_le32() on the constant
values.

More empty lines?
