Subject: [PATCH] iwlwifi: mvm: don't crash on invalid rate w/o STA
Git-commit: d599f714b73e4177dfdfe64fce09175568288ee9
References: git-fixes
Patch-mainline: v5.16-rc6

If we get to the WARN_ONCE(..., "Got a HT rate (...)", ...)
here with a NULL sta, then we crash because mvmsta is bad
and we try to dereference it. Fix that by printing -1 as the
state if no station was given.
