iwlagn: verify flow id in compressed BA packet
The flow id (scd_flow) in a compressed BA packet should match the txq_id of the queue from which the aggregated packets were sent. However, in some hardware like the 1000 series, sometimes the flow id is 0 for the txq_id (10 to 19). This can cause the annoying message: [ 2213.306191] iwlagn 0000:01:00.0: Received BA when not expected [ 2213.310178] iwlagn 0000:01:00.0: Read index for DMA queue txq id (0), index 5, is out of range [0-256] 7 7. And even worse, if agg->wait_for_ba is true when the bad BA is arriving, this can cause system hang due to NULL pointer dereference because the code is operating in a wrong tx queue!
