You mean having a common hardcoded value for both ?
After 4441e8e9 the minstrel rate indexes have to be u8-s and having this
common param > 2 would require something like:

With this I could not advertise the patch overhead-less when not setting
MAC80211_RC_MINSTREL_VHT, too invasive for a simple step to feel the
limits of the present implementation and a way to test vht tx path.
But maybe that's not what you had in mind for MINSTREL_*_MAX_STREAMS ?
