This fixes PHY transmission errors reported on some LP-PHY and HT-PHY
cards. For LP-PHY they were quite rare and not really noticable. On
HT-PHY they were critical, OFDM rates were not available at all.

I've this patch since August or earlier, just didn't submit it yet. It
was succesfully tested on LP-PHY cards and fixed performance for every
tested HT-PHY case.
