Subject: [PATCH] wifi: mac80211_hwsim: avoid mac80211 warning on bad
 rate
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

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).
