ath9k: fix a tx rate duration calculation bug
The rate pointer variable for a rate series is used in a loop before it is initialized. This went unnoticed because it was used earlier for the RTS/CTS rate. This bug can lead to the wrong PHY type being passed to the duration calculation function. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: John W.
