Replace the for loop by a ternary operator whose condition is an AND
bitmask against the priv->basic_rates variable.

The purpose of the for loop was to check if any of bits from RATE_54M to
RATE_6M was set, but it's not necessary to check every individual bit.
The same result can be achieved using only one single mask which
comprises all the commented bits.

-int vnt_ofdm_min_rate(struct vnt_private *priv)
+bool vnt_ofdm_min_rate(struct vnt_private *priv)
  {
-	int ii;
-
-	for (ii = RATE_54M; ii >= RATE_6M; ii--) {
-		if ((priv->basic_rates) & ((u16)BIT(ii)))
-			return true;
-	}
-
-	return false;
+	return priv->basic_rates & GENMASK(RATE_54M, RATE_6M) ? true : false;

priv->basic_rates & GENMASK(RATE_54M, RATE_6M) is already true if
non-zero and false otherwise. Note that I haven't checked if the
rest is correct.

Yes only 1 or more needs to be true and it is false when none present.

I have run-time checked the patch and it does function as before.

Malcolm.
