Garbage was reported in ieee80211_tx_info. This
led to a WARN_ON in cfg80211_calculate_bitrate().
This also fixes some random tx bitrate values
reported through `iw` command.

It was obseverd many times the short queue limit can be
easily exceeded in case of AP multiple BSSID scenarios.
"ath10k: wmi mgmt_tx queue limit reached."
This was leading to TX packets drops.
This patch expands the queue limit to 128. After many stress
experiments (high traffic and lot of management frames in
the air) the new value seems to fix the problem on platforms
with limited resources.

Frames were never retransmitted with
different/lower bandwidths, e.g. only 80MHz
bandwidth was used when dealing with a VHT80
peer.
Allow HW rate control to try out different
bandwidths when retransmitting. This increases
robustness.
Also, document the parameter properly.

TX99 support enables Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) testing.
SAR is the unit of measurement for the amount of radio frequency(RF)
absorbed by the body when using a wireless device. The RF
exposure limits used are expressed in the terms of SAR, which is a
measure of the electric and magnetic field strength and power density
for transmitters operating at frequencies from 300 kHz to 100 GHz.
Regulatory bodies around the world require that wireless device
be evaluated to meet the RF exposure limits set forth in the
governmental SAR regulations.
In the examples below, for more bit rate options see the iw TX bitrate
setting documentation:
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Documentation/iw#Modifying_transmit_bitrates
Example usage:
iw phy phy0 interface add moni0 type monitor
ip link set dev moni0 up
iw dev moni0 set channel 36 HT40+
iw set bitrates mcs-5 4
