the assumption made in this patch is obviously wrong (at least for more

my log is flooded with messages like

i tested this with the 10.4.3.5-0038 firmware which isnt official
published but made from athwlan.bin i got from qca chipcode
Hm, yes there is most likely something wrong. But not sure whether this patch
is actually the culprit. It looks to me like this would also be reported the
same way without the patch. cec17c382140 ("ath10k: add per peer htt tx stats
support for 10.4") seems to be your problem, right?

This patch only splits WMI_RATE_PREAMBLE_HT & WMI_RATE_PREAMBLE_VHT. And for
WMI_RATE_PREAMBLE_HT (*not VHT*), it uses a slightly different approach. But
the WMI_RATE_PREAMBLE_VHT part (which you see in your logs) is basically
untouched.

then a question follows up. is this check really neccessary?
