ath10k: handle attention flags correctly when using A-MSDU

In case of A-MSDU RX we should check attention flags
correctly to be sure we report correct FCS status for
A-MSDU subframes. Without a patch we could report A-MSDU
subframes with wrong FCS as a correct to the stack, next
get a lot of DUP ACK TCP packets. Finally TP drop is seen
and this drop depends on FCS errors ratio for A-MSDU frame.

Example test case when TP drop is seen:
- ath10k configured as an AP
- used ath10k station
- forced A-MSDU (7 frames) on STA
- other traffic on channel (often FCS errors)
- monitor iface added on AP
- TCP STA -> AP traffic (iperf)

a) Iperf logs for case without the patch:
