Shouldn't rate_control_rate_init() in net/mac80211/rate.h be changed to protect
against the oops? I don't see any value in the client driver having to provide a
dummy routine. The rtlwifi family of drivers use their own rate-control
mechanism, and get no rate-control info from mac80211.
In this case, I see no value in them providing rate control operations
at all, and they could just set IEEE80211_HW_HAS_RATE_CONTROL, no?
I think that makes sense.
