When using multiple STA interfaces on the same radio, some
data packets need to be received on all interfaces
(broadcast, for instance).

Remove special loop for data-only packets and just process all
packets in the big loop that previously only handled non-data
packets.

I'd prefer keeping different for_each_*, but maybe we can make the loops
just call a common function, say with&prev pointer or something? The
station loop will typically be iterating over fewer things here.

While attempting this, I see something strange.  It appears that
for the last interface (in the non-data loop), the
if (status->flag & RX_FLAG_MMIC_ERROR)
logic will not be run?

Is that on purpose?

Thanks,
Ben
