From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx> commit 1833b6f46d7e2830251a063935ab464256defe22 upstream. If the tool on the other side (e.g. wmediumd) gets confused about the rate, we hit a warning in mac80211. Silence that by effectively duplicating the check here and dropping the frame silently (in mac80211 it's dropped with the warning).
