They are both used for all packets regardless of the mode. prism2_rx()
reads the frame from hardware and adds it to a processing queue (this
used to be done in hardware interrupt and could still be called if bus
mastering is used) and hostap_rx_skb() is called for each packet in this
queue (this is called from tasklet, i.e., outside hw interrupt handler).
