RSSI reported by the RX descriptor requires little manipulation.
Manipulate and report the correct RSSI to the stack. This will
fix the improper signal levels reported by iwconfig iw dev wlanX
station dump.
Also use the default noise floor for now as the one reported
during the caliberation seems to be wrong.
