ath9k: Fix possible double free of PAPRD skb's

This patch reverts the following commit
ath9k: remove bfs_paprd_timestamp from struct ath_buf_state

Under high interference/noisy environment conditions where PAPRD frames
fails heavily introduces a possibility of double freeing skb's and causes
kernel panic after some time.This patch reverts back to the original approach
of using paprd_timestamp before freeing the PAPRD frame skb's
