Current mac80211 has provision to update tx status through
ieee80211_tx_status() and ieee80211_tx_status_ext(). But
drivers like ath10k updates the tx status from the skb except
txrate, txrate will be updated from a different path, peer stats.
Using ieee80211_tx_status_ext() in two different paths
- (one for the stats, one for the tx rate) will duplicate the stats.
To avoid this stats duplication, ieee80211_tx_rate_update() is implemented.

V3:
- Added new API in mac80211 to update tx rate(Johannes)
V4:
- Removed non NULL check on pubsta and updated comments on
ieee80211_tx_rate_update()
