ath9k: validate for non-zero BSSID
before concluding that the recieved beacon is for us, let us make sure that the BSSID is non-zero. when I configured ad-hoc mode as creator and left it for some time without joining I found we recieved few frames whose BSSID is zero, which we concluded wrongly as 'my_beacons' Signed-off-by: Mohammed Shafi Shajakhan <mohammed@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
