iwlwifi: mvm: avoid sending too many BARs
When we receive TX response, we may release a few packets due to a hole that was closed in the transmission window. However, if that frame failed, we will mark all the released frames as failed and will send multiple BARs. This affects statistics badly, and cause unnecessary frames transmission. Instead, mark all the following packets as success, with the desired result of sending a bar for the failed frame only.
