Hi,
Thanks for the new version. I was going to apply it but while changing
something small - see below - found what I think is another issue?

I was going to change that to just
if (hweight32(rate) > 1)
return -EINVAL;
I realize that your code is equivalent, but I doubt that we need to be
really efficient here, and IMHO hweight32() is easier to understand.

But this is where I got confused - this seems wrong, you should be
checking the hweight8() of each of the ht_mcs[i] values?
Similarly, the VHT one, but with hweight16() of course, no?
I was going to move a "if (rate) return -EINVAL;" check into this and
the VHT loop, so that we only need the count_ht && count_vht and the
"all empty" portion of this:
