Subject: [PATCH 4.14 084/496] iwlwifi: mvm: always init rs with 20mhz bandwidth rates

4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Naftali Goldstein <naftali.goldstein@...el.com>

[ Upstream commit 6b7a5aea71b342ec0593d23b08383e1f33da4c9a ]

In AP mode, when a new station associates, rs is initialized immediately
upon association completion, before the phy context is updated with the
association parameters, so the sta bandwidth might be wider than the phy
context allows.
To avoid this issue, always initialize rs with 20mhz bandwidth rate, and
after authorization, when the phy context is already up-to-date, re-init
rs with the correct bw.
