75 characters per lines.
Does this affect your use actually?

Not sure if this is your real name? And, it should be the same as From field.

Indentation is weird.
More, initializer of `unicast` can be removed, and here can be
if (is_unicast_ether_addr(hdr->addr1)) {
unicast = true;
rtlpriv->stats.rxbytesunicast += skb->len;
} else {
unicast = false;
}
(I don't think TODO is still useful for now)
