Add checking the "CRC_OK" bit at the end of incoming packets to make sure the cc2520 driver only passes up valid packets. Because the AUTOCRC bit in the FRMCTRL0 register is set to 1 after init, the CC2520 handles checking the CRC of incoming packets and sets the most significant bit of the last byte of the incoming packet to 1 if the check passed. This patch simply checks that bit.
