wifi: ath12k: drop failed transmitted frames from metric calculation.
[ Upstream commit 50971dc6694c0845fcddfe337ea39c5b723d5a92 ]
In mesh node traffic, internal firmware-transmitted failures are
reported as transmitted failures in mesh metric calculation, leading
to the breakage of the mesh link.
Fix the issue by dropping the internal firmware-transmitted failures
before updating the TX completion status to mac80211, in order to
prevent false failure averaging in mesh metric calculation.
Tested-on: QCN9274 hw2.0 PCI WLAN.WBE.1.0.1-00029-QCAHKSWPL_SILICONZ-1
Fixes: d889913205cf ("wifi: ath12k: driver for Qualcomm Wi-Fi 7 devices")
