Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: fix rate control for retransmitted frames
Git-commit: 18688c80ad8a8dd50523dc9276e929932cac86d4
Patch-mainline: v5.16-rc6
References: git-fixes

Since retransmission clears info->control, rate control needs to be called
again, otherwise the driver might crash due to invalid rates.
