The linear mapping between the BD rate field and the driver's 5GHz
legacy rates table (wcn_5ghz_rates) does not only apply for the latter
four rates -- it applies to all eight rates.

Thanks for confirming that. Will send v3 that just falls-through on
rate_idx < 4, no warn or log.

It looks fine, but can you replace it with a 'status.rate_idx  >= 4'.
I get sporadic 5Ghz frames reported with rate_idx=0 (firmware miss?),
leading to warnings because status.rate_idx is -4(unsigned) in that
case. So better to report a wrong rate than a corrupted one.
