Hi!
Actually, the code tries to find a 'next' (fallback) rate, which will be used
if transmission on the current rate fails; the code will be incorrect, when HT

Depending on the outcome here, it look like bwi will need similar treatment?

Ok looks like bwi doesn't need.
I don't know too much about bwn(4).
Given we have hard coded mapping tables with a limited set of 'rates'
according to bwn_hwrate2ieeerate() and bwn_ieeerate2hwrate() would it make
sense to manually code a "one lower than this" table?

Yeah, we should have a fallback rate function in net80211.
Why? Just to make sure that you're using the previously /negotiated/ rate,
all the way back down to the lowest basic rate. Eg, you may not actually be
allowed to use CCK 1Mbit rate according to the AP.
