mac80211: fix HT-Control field reception for management frames

Browse source

If we receive management frames with an HT-Control field, we cannot
parse them properly, as we assume a fixed length management header.

Since we don't even need the HTC field (for these frames, or really
at all), just remove it at the beginning of RX.
