ath9k: fix a WEP crypto related regression
commit b4a82a0 "ath9k_hw: fix interpretation of the rx KeyMiss flag" fixed the interpretation of the KeyMiss flag for keycache based lookups, however WEP encryption uses a static index, so KeyMiss is always asserted for it, even though frames are decrypted properly. Fix this by clearing the ATH9K_RXERR_KEYMISS flag if no keycache based lookup was performed.
