I assume this is the case because the driver is still being developed and
the correct behaviour would be that frames with CRC errors are recieved
in monitor mode if and only if the fcsfail flag is not set.

Will a patch be accepted that implements that behaviour? What else
must the patch contain for it to be accepted?

(For example, what about the radiotap header? Will it automatically
have the bad fcs flag set when for a corrupted packet? Or does that
have to be still implemented as well?)

Thank you
