+Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: minstrel_ht: fix where rate stats are stored (fixes
+ debugfs output)
+
+Using an ath9k card the debugfs output of minstrel_ht looks like the following
+(note the zero values for the first four rates sum-of success/attempts):
+
+ best ____________rate__________ ____statistics___ _____last____ ______sum-of________
+mode guard # rate [name idx airtime max_tp] [avg(tp) avg(prob)] [retry|suc|att] [#success | #attempts]

+OFDM 1 54.0M 279 212 33.0 0.0 0.0 0 0 0 0 72
+
+Total packet count:: ideal 16582 lookaround 885
+Average # of aggregated frames per A-MPDU: 1.0
+
+Debugging showed that the rate statistics for the first four rates where
+stored in the MINSTREL_CCK_GROUP instead of the MINSTREL_OFDM_GROUP because
+in minstrel_ht_get_stats() the supported check was not honoured as done in
+various other places, e.g net/mac80211/rc80211_minstrel_ht_debugfs.c:
+
+ 74 if (!(mi->supported[i] & BIT(j)))
+ 75 continue;
+
+With the patch applied the output looks good:
+
+ best ____________rate__________ ____statistics___ _____last____ ______sum-of________
+mode guard # rate [name idx airtime max_tp] [avg(tp) avg(prob)] [retry|suc|att] [#success | #attempts]
