Each packet in the buffer is handled by a call to wl1271_rx_handle_data, which will fail if skb memory allocation fails or production mode is enabled. These failures currently prevent the rx counters to be incremented, thus causing the rx loop to run forever. Fix this by ignoring error codes reported wl1271_rx_handle_data function. This essentially means that frames will be dropped in production mode, which is the intetion, and frames will be dropped if memory allocation fails, which is a decent way to recover from that situation.
