AFAICT, this driver is claiming that 24 bits of rate info fit into a
16-bit field in the Tx descriptor. Anyway, the use of bitfields is
frowned-upon for a variety of well-documented reasons...

These masks could be backwards -- someone with the hardware please let
me know if that is the case or if this version works?
