3Subject: [PATCH] wifi: mac80211: fix mesh airtime link metric estimating
4
5ieee80211s_update_metric function uses sta_set_rate_info_tx
6function to get struct rate_info data from ieee80211_tx_rate
7struct, present in ieee80211_sta->deflink.tx_stats. However,
8drivers can skip tx rate calculation by setting rate idx as
9-1. Such drivers provides rate_info directly and hence
10ieee80211s metric is updated incorrectly since ieee80211_tx_rate
11has inconsistent data.
12
13Add fix to use rate_info directly if present instead of
14sta_set_rate_info_tx for updating ieee80211s metric.
