mac80211: minstrel_ht - reduce the overhead of rate sampling
- reduce the number of retransmission attempts for sample rates - sample lower rates less often - do not use RTS/CTS for sampling frames - increase the time between sampling attempts Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
