Hello.
The following woe happened on my home router running as a Wi-Fi AP with
MT7612:

```
`faddr2line` says it is this:
```
430 int
431 minstrel_ht_get_tp_avg(struct minstrel_ht_sta *mi, int group, int rate,
432 int prob_avg)
433 {
…
435 unsigned int ampdu_len = 1;
…
441 if (minstrel_ht_is_legacy_group(group))
…
443 else
444 ampdu_len = minstrel_ht_avg_ampdu_len(mi);
…
446 nsecs = 1000 * overhead / ampdu_len;
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
```
So, it seems `minstrel_ht_avg_ampdu_len()` can return 0, which is not
really legitimate.
Looking at `minstrel_ht_avg_ampdu_len()`, I see the following:
```
16:#define MINSTREL_SCALE 12
…
18:#define MINSTREL_TRUNC(val) ((val) >> MINSTREL_SCALE)
```
```
401 static unsigned int
402 minstrel_ht_avg_ampdu_len(struct minstrel_ht_sta *mi)
403 {
…
406 if (mi->avg_ampdu_len)
407 return MINSTREL_TRUNC(mi->avg_ampdu_len);
```
So, likely, `mi->avg_ampdu_len` is non-zero, but it's too small, hence
right bitshift makes it zero.
Should there be some protection against such a situation?
Felix, could you maybe check this? Looks like you were the last one to
overhaul that part of code.
Thanks!
