Rx data frames notified through HTT_T2H_MSG_TYPE_RX_IND and

in every received data frames (that are notified through those
HTT interfaces) from the rx_hdr_status tlv available in the
rx descriptor of the first msdu. Skip setting RX_FLAG_IV_STRIPPED
flag for the packets which requires mac80211 PN/TSC check support
and set appropriate RX_FLAG for stripped crypto tail. Hw QCA988X,
and QCA99X0 currently need the rebuilding of cipher header to
perform PN/TSC check for replay attack.

Hi Greg,

  This patch along with its dependency patches (in the following order)

f980ebc058c2 : mac80211: allow not sending MIC up from driver for HW crypto
f631a77ba920 : mac80211: allow same PN for AMSDU sub-frames
cef0acd4d7d4 : mac80211: Add RX flag to indicate ICV stripped
[PATCH 1/2 linux-stable-4.4] ath10k: Add new hw param to identify alignment for different chipsets

build fine when checked with v4.4.130.

Kindly let me know if you face any issues while trying out in this order.

Thanks,
Sriram.R
