ath9k: Fix sequence number assignment for non-data frames
Since commit 558ff225de80ac95b132d3a115ddadcd64498b4f (ath9k: fix ps-poll responses under a-mpdu sessions) non-data frames would have gotten a sequence number from a TIDs sequence counter instead of using the global sequence counter. This can lead to instable connections. To fix this only select the correct TID if we are processing a data frame. Furthermore, prevent non-data frames to get a sequence number from a TID sequence counter by adding a check to ath_tx_setup_buffer.
