coding: clarify the USF decoding for PDCH blocks
The USF (Uplink State Flag) field is present in the MAC header of all
Downlink PDCH blocks. It is used by the network to indicate which MS
can transmit on subsequent Uplink PDCH block(s). This field is of a
high importance for the MS, thus the decoder API allows the caller
to obtain USF value separately from the actual data bits.
In the case of gsm0503_pdtch_decode(), if the 'usf_p' pointer is not
NULL, the USF value would be assigned for CS2/CS3/CS4 (but not CS1)
even if the CRC check fails (negative return value). A subsequent
patch is to bring the CS1 in consistency with CS2/CS3/CS4.
In the case of gsm0503_pdtch_egprs_decode(), decoding of the USF
field separately from data bits is not implemented, and moreover
the function itself cannot be used for decoding Downlink blocks.
