From: Yu-Yen Ting <steventing@xxxxxxxxxxx>
The management frame with high rate e.g. 24M may not be transmitted
smoothly in long range environment.
Add a debugfs to force to use the lowest basic rate
in order to debug the reachability of transmitting management frame.
obtain current setting
cat /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phyX/rtw88/basic_rates
force lowest rate:
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phyX/rtw88/basic_rates
