3.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Felix Fietkau <n...@openwrt.org>
commit 2dfca312a91631311c1cf7c090246cc8103de038 upstream.
brcm80211 cannot handle sending frames with CCK rates as part of an
A-MPDU session. Other drivers may have issues too. Set the flag in all
drivers that have been tested with CCK rates.
This fixes a reported brcmsmac regression introduced in
commit ef47a5e4f1aaf1d0e2e6875e34b2c9595897bef6
"mac80211/minstrel_ht: fix cck rate sampling"
