wifi: mac80211: fix mesh airtime link metric estimating

Browse source

ieee80211s_update_metric function uses sta_set_rate_info_tx
function to get struct rate_info data from ieee80211_tx_rate
struct, present in ieee80211_sta->deflink.tx_stats. However,
drivers can skip tx rate calculation by setting rate idx as
-1. Such drivers provides rate_info directly and hence
ieee80211s metric is updated incorrectly since ieee80211_tx_rate
has inconsistent data.

Add fix to use rate_info directly if present instead of
sta_set_rate_info_tx for updating ieee80211s metric.
