I agree that removing uneeded updates of last_rx is the right thing to do.

I had a quick look at the broadcom-wl source. The driver falls in the category
of those that were writing to last_rx but not reading it. Moreover, it only
does so in monitor mode. So it seems safe to remove the write.

Thanks for updating this out-of-tree driver.
