iwlwifi: cleanup and bugfix tx aggregation code
Since the driver split, there's no need for no_agg_framecnt_info since
all devices have this set to false. Secondly, the compressed block ack
handling code was broken. Fix this.
(1) A shift less than zero simply implies that the buffer wrapped, this
is expected. Remove the incorrect comment.
(2) The (agg->frame_count > (64-sh)) condition can happen if the last
frame is dropped. E.g., if I send 7 frames and the 6th is received but
the 7th is lost, the other side may only shift the window 6, not 7
frames since the last bit is a 0. This is perfectly fine behavior and
doesn't invalidate the feedback.
(3) Store the feedback from a Compressed BA in the first newly received
frame, rather than the start of the window. This way it will get
processed by the rate selection code. Feedback stored in a non-received
frame is likely to get overwritten by the retransmission.
This is based on the approach taken by minstrel_ht.
