Description

After some time at86rf215 stops receiving frames. It's unclear yet what triggers this, but it happens when running as a border router with gnrc_netif_pktq and handling fragmented frames.

In this state, the driver will ignore all incoming traffic until it has sent out a frame on it's own. After that, normal operation continues for some time until the problem occurs again.

Steps to reproduce the issue

Actual results

at86rf215 can get into a state where it stops receiving frames until it has sent out a frame on it's own.
