Subject: mac80211: do not call rate control .tx_status before .rate_init
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2cfc6fc584a65db87935ca4e4d5e1ad89d5192ee;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

mac80211: do not call rate control .tx_status before .rate_init

Most rate control implementations assume .get_rate and .tx_status are only
called once the per-station data has been fully initialized.
minstrel_ht crashes if this assumption is violated.
