Currently rx status for frames which are completed from reorder buffer
is taken from it's cb area which is wrong, cb is not holding the rx status.
This results in dropping almost all frames from reorder buffer when security
is enabled by doing double decryption (first in hw, second in sw because of wrong
rx status). This patch copies rx status into cb area before the frame is put
into reorder buffer. After this patch, there is a significant improvement in
throughput with ath9k + WPA2(AES).
