rt2x00: Convert AGC value from descriptor to RSSI (dBm)
The RSSI values in the RXWI descriptor aren't true RSSI values. Instead they are more like the AGC values similar to rt61pci. And as such, it needs the same conversion before it can be passed to rt2x00lib/mac80211. This requires the struct queue_entry to be passed to rt2800_process_rxwi rather then the skb structure which is contained in the queue_entry. This is required to obtain the lna_gain information from the rt2x00_dev structure. This fixes connection problems when using wpa_supplicant which would try to connect to the worst AP's rather then the best ones.
