I have been working with this patch as I needed the ability to select 
the rx chain/antenna on an AR9820.. A problem I have ran into is that 
regardless of what I set the antenna chain to, the radiotap header 
always reports antenna 1. I know this originates from the rx status 
descriptor, but is this really what should be used to report the antenna 
when using chains to select the antenna?

V/r,
Daniel
