Subject: [PATCH] ath10k: fix bug in masking of TID value

Although the TID mask is 0xf, the modulus operation does still not
produce identical results as the bitwise and operator.

If the TID is 15, the modulus operation will "convert" it to 0, whereas
the bitwise and will keep it as 15.

Correct, I kind of stumbled upon it while working with TX bundling for SDIO.
