You're right. I should drop the patch earlier. Sorry for the noise.
Eventually, I have found the cause, it is possible to some unicast frame picking up a wrong legacy rate
to send out because the current driver doesn't program the legacy rate information well.
The fix have been provided with ("mt76: mt7921: fix firmware usage of RA info using legacy rates") in [1].
