This is the must in case we would like to report rssi + rates correctly.
I describe this in 2/2 - maybe squash them?
Currently during heavy traffic we could have:
> 10 packets with START_VALID - correct RSSI + rates
> 10 packets with END_VALID
> 10 packets with START_VALID - correct RSSI + rates
> 10 packets with END_VALID -
...

Because of that we have to store rssi + rates for case when END_VALID only.
In other case when using monitor we will see:
- 10 packets with correct rssi/rates
- 10 packets with rssi=-95/rate=6Mbps
