I think there was a miscommunication last time, this rc variable is
not a trac register value, it is a linux errno. Also the error here
has nothing to do with a trac error. A trac error is the result of the
offloaded transmit functionality on the transceiver, here we dealing
about bus communication errors produced by the spi subsystem. What we
need is to report it to the softmac layer as "IEEE802154_SYSTEM_ERROR"
(as we decided that this is a user specific error and can be returned
by the transceiver for non 802.15.4 "error" return code.

That makes no sense, at86rf230_async_error() is not a trac error
handling, it is a bus error handling. As noted above. With this change
you mix bus errors and trac errors (which are not bus errors). If
there are no bus errors then trac should be evaluated and should
either deliver some 802.15.4 $SUCCESS_CODE or $ERROR_CODE to the
softmac stack, which is xmit_complete() or xmit_error().
