mwifiex: fix 11n rx packet drop issue
Currently we check the sequence number of last packet received against start_win. If a sequence hole is detected, start_win is updated to next sequence number. Since the rx sequence number is initialized to 0, a corner case exists when BA setup happens immediately after association. As 0 is a valid sequence number, start_win gets increased to 1 incorrectly. This causes the first packet with sequence number 0 being dropped. Initialize rx sequence number as 0xffff and skip adjusting start_win if the sequence number remains 0xffff. The sequence number will be updated once the first packet is received.
