brcmf_sdio_fromevntchan() was being called on the the data frame
rather than the software header, causing some frames to be
mischaracterized as on the event channel rather than the data channel.

This fixes a major performance regression (due to dropped packets).

Oh, that was supposed to be 4.7+, I gave you a wrong hint, sorry!

You may send V3, or maybe ask Kalle to fix it by hand when applying the patch.
