Hm, yeah, that's kinda questionable.
AFAICT we still do the right thing since ieee80211_drop_unencrypted()
contains a check for ieee80211_is_data() and we return in this if
branch, so we never get to the TAINTED check or the actual decrypt.
We could try to just drop unencrypted data frames (that aren't control
port protocol) right here, but it might wreak havoc with the reorder
buffer in case it (erroneously) happens.
