mac80211: improve minstrel_ht rate sorting by throughput & probability
This patch improves the way minstrel_ht sorts rates according to throughput and success probability. 3 FOR-loops across the entire rate and mcs group set in function minstrel_ht_update_stats() which where used to determine the fastest, second fastest and most robust rate are reduced to 2 FOR-loop. The sorted list of rates according throughput is extended to the best four rates as we need them in upcoming joint rate and power control. The sorting is done via the new function minstrel_ht_sort_best_tp_rates(). The annotation of those 4 best throughput rates in the debugfs file rc-stats is changes to: "A,B,C,D", where A is the fastest rate and C the 4th fastest.
