mac80211: fix max HT rate processing on mac80211

Browse source

The max MCS index is 76, fix the higher check to allow through
frames received at MCS 76. This is a non-issue for current drivers
as MCS 76 is only possible with a device supporting 4 spatial
streams.

While at it change the WARN_ON() on invalid HT rates to a WARN()
to provide more useful information. This will help debug issues
when the driver is passing up a bogus HT rate value.

The rate must map to a valid MCS index which can be any of the
values in the set [0 - 76] (inclusive).
