ath9k: Fix rx filtering issue for older chips

Browse Source 
We need to have the promiscuous mode enabled for older
chipsets so that the olderchips hardware does not
filters out some valid/necessary frames that need
to be sent to mac80211. Fix this by enabling promiscus
mode for all the chipsets whose macversion <= AR9160
chipsets. This should fix
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=45591

shafi: made the fix generic by having the frame filtering
disabled for chipsets older than AR9280.
