mac80211: fix a crash in minstrel_ht in HT mode with no supported MCS rates
When a client connects in HT mode but does not provide any valid MCS rates, the function that finds the next sample rate gets stuck in an infinite loop. Fix this by falling back to legacy rates if no usable MCS rates are found. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: John W.
