Your patch works fine here with a WNDA3100, using the two-stage firmware, against
a 802.11g AP. After "iwconfig wlan1 rate 54M" I get approx. 22 MBit/s throughput
with iperf, same as without the patch.

Strange, same device here (or another hw version? FCC ID: PY307300073)
and I see packets @ 54M from the dev in the sniffer. But it also has the
invalid regdomain 0x8000 in the eeprom ...

With the one-stage firmware and without your patch my device doesn't associate with the AP,
seems like no packets are sent. So I can't test your patch with the one-stage fw.
Same result with a AVM Fritz stick.
I'll look into bisecting.

Regards,
Joerg.
