mac80211: add multi-rate retry support
This patch adjusts the rate control API to allow multi-rate retry if supported by the driver. The ieee80211_hw struct specifies how many alternate rate selections the driver supports. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
