mac80211: fix queue selection issue

When __ieee80211_select_queue is called, skb->cb has not been cleared yet,
which means that info->control.flags can contain garbage.
In some cases this leads to IEEE80211_TX_CTRL_DONT_REORDER being set, causing
packets marked for other queues to randomly end up in BE instead.

+Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: drop check for DONT_REORDER in
+ __ieee80211_select_queue
+
+When __ieee80211_select_queue is called, skb->cb has not been cleared yet,
+which means that info->control.flags can contain garbage.
+In some cases this leads to IEEE80211_TX_CTRL_DONT_REORDER being set, causing
+packets marked for other queues to randomly end up in BE instead.
+
+This flag only needs to be checked in ieee80211_select_queue_80211, since
+the radiotap parser is the only piece of code that sets it
+
+Fixes: 66d06c84730c ("mac80211: adhere to Tx control flag that prevents frame reordering")
