mac80211: initialize rate control earlier for tdls station (c23e31cf) · Commits · 戴 / test

Currently when TDLS station in driver goes from authenticated to associated state it can not use rate control parameters because rate control is not initialized yet. Some drivers require parameters already initialized by rate control when entering associated state. It can be done by initializing rate control after station transition to associated state but before notifying driver about that. Signed-off-by:
