I can't believe I didn't realize this before, but ...

I think this is a bit strange?

I mean, why not just skip the

        /* Default to all rates enabled */
        for (i = 0; i < NUM_NL80211_BANDS; i++) {
		[...]
	}

code? Right now you're first setting it, and then clearing it again when
is_beacon_tx_rate is set ...


I'd prefer a "default_all_enabled" parameter, and then call the above
loop conditionally on it (perhaps moving it to a separate function to
not have all the deep indentation to worry about).
