Subject: [PATCH 4.19 208/220] mac80211: minstrel: fix using short preamble CCK rates on HT clients

From: Felix Fietkau <nbd@....name>

[ Upstream commit 37439f2d6e43ae79e22be9be159f0af157468f82 ]

mi->supported[MINSTREL_CCK_GROUP] needs to be updated
short preamble rates need to be marked as supported regardless of
whether it's currently enabled. Its state can change at any time without
a rate_update call.
