Comment (by proski):
I believe that's an assert due to sn->num_rates being 0. The problem
exists in the trunk as well, except that ath_rate_setupxtxdesc() was
renamed to ath_rate_get_mrr().
ath_rate_ctl_reset() sets sn->num_rates to 0 briefly. I believe it should
set a flag that would prevent using the rate control algorithm until the
reset is complete. Perhaps mutexes would be needed too. Alternatively,
the data in sn should be kept consistent at all times.
