From: Mordechay Goodstein <[email protected]>
The bits of Rx MCS Map in VHT capability were enumerated
with index transform - index i -> (i + 1) bit => nss i. BUG!
while it should be - index i -> (i + 1) bit => (i + 1) nss.
The bug was exposed in commit a53b2a0b1245 ("iwlwifi: mvm: implement VHT
extended NSS support in rs.c"), where iwlwifi started using the
function.
