The recent commit "ath9k: Send legacy rated frames as unaggregated"
introduced a check to ensure that packets with non-MCS rates set in
the rate series will not be aggregated. However, it failed to check
if the rate series is valid before testing the flags, thus breaking
aggregation for normal MCS-only packets if the last series is unset.

Good catch. Let it be descending order that helps to reduce number of iteration in case of
ath9k_rate_control.
That would really just be a very minor micro-optimization and it would
make finding the first invalid rate harder and the code more convoluted.
I don't think it's worth changing the patch for that.
