When tx offload is enabled, info->band from skb cb is 0. This
causes null pointer access at mac80211 when sband is accessed.


More specifically tx encap offload instead of tx offload will be clearer.


In offload case, ndo_hard_start will bypass mac80211 tx and no
function will set info->band in skb cb to correct value.

Tested-on: QCN9074 hw1.0 PCI WLAN.HK.2.4.0.1-01725-QCAHKSWPL_SILICONZ-1

Is this initialization needed with the way flags is assigned below?
