ath5k: correct handling of rx status fields
ath5k_rx_status fields rs_antenna and rs_more are u8s, but we
were setting them with bitwise ANDs of 32-bit values.
As a consequence, jumbo frames would not be discarded as intended.
Then, because the hw rate value of such frames is zero, and, since
"ath5k: rates cleanup", we do not fall back to the basic rate, such
packets would trigger the following WARN_ON:
