Luis R. Rodriguez 20f57215a2 ath9k: remove pointless wrapper ath_rc_rate_getidx()
This is just calling another helper, so just use the other
helper directly. This should make it clear that when do not
find the next rate we stick to the current one.

Luis R. Rodriguez 984d021d56 ath9k: remove unused min rate calculation code
This is not used, and when we need to get the lowest rate
we should simply use mac80211's own rate_lowest_index(sband, sta).

Luis R. Rodriguez dd1901830c ath9k: cleanup try count for MRR in rate control
This has no functional change and just cleans up the code
to be more legible and removes a useless variable for
Multi Rate Retry.

For regular frames we use 2 retries for MRR segments [0-2].
For the last MRR segment [3] we use 4.

MRR[0] = 2
MRR[1] = 2
MRR[2] = 2
MRR[3] = 4

Luis R. Rodriguez e43419f9ad ath9k: downgrade assert in rc.c for invalid rate
The case where no vaid rate is found should not happen now
but to help debugging and downgrade this to a warn.

Luis R. Rodriguez 4f0fc7c39f ath9k: make private driver rate tables const
On x86 this allows us to do the following small savings:
shave off 23 % off of the module's data, and
shave off 6  % off of the module's text.

We save 456 bytes, for those counting.

Gábor Stefanik 97d3f458a1 ath9k: Fix handling of retry count of NO_ACK frames
Check for IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_ACK instead of is_multicast_ether_addr
when determining whether to use lowest rate without retries.
