wireless: report reasonable bitrate for MCS rates through wext
commit 254416aae70ab2e6b57fd79782c8a67196234d02 upstream. Previously, cfg80211 had reported "0" for MCS (i.e. 802.11n) bitrates through the wireless extensions interface. However, nl80211 was converting MCS rates into a reasonable bitrate number. This patch moves the nl80211 code to cfg80211 where it is now shared between both the nl80211 interface and the wireless extensions interface. Signed-off-by: John W.
