From: Ron Rindjunsky <ron.rindjunsky@xxxxxxxxx>
This patch introduces data structures meant to contain actual
configuration in which Tx was made in HW, for general purposes
and for rate scaling in specific.
it includes the rate, general flags for the rate (e.g. Tx antenna)
and the number of retries for the rate.
